Hello everyone.
I have four of these in my collection
They look exactly like Faustabryna specimens.
Data: 09-2014 - Mt Kanlaon - 900m - Negros Island - Visayas - Philippines
Thanks for any help. |

Regional differences in specimens as so often happens with Asian fauna!
Thanks guys.

I also have P. puncicornis romblonica Hued. from Panay.
It is identical but with less brown on the elytra. |

Well, I don't know, but as you have both specimens with straight and curve band, it should be easy to check if they belong to the same species (and they seem). |

Hi Xavier.
I see what you mean about the second white band being two 'curved' in the specimen above.
I have three other specimens of this species.
Below are a Male and Female showing horizontal second bands.

Sorry, but I don't recognize the second white band. |

Hi Bill.
Brilliant, you have no idea how long I've been chewing this over!
Thanks

Pseudaprophata I am thinking now. I have three of these with no name, all three show little variation. |
