If the eyes are really hairless (use microscope!), the first is A. tibetanus.

Yes: the specimens with an only central depression on the pronotum belong to Cephalallus.
Red specimens of C. oberthueri belong to the variety unicolor (Gahan, 1906).

the 3rd sp. also 2000m+ but is different valley.
so they are 3 specimens from 3 different localities.

the second one sp50 is probably not Cephalallus oberthueri, which was be found in N.India & Myanmar.
the leg's color is different. One is black another is red.

the comparison.
left is sp 49 (2000m), right one is the second one sp 50 (1000m)
Grazie!

another one,sp50, this is a low elevation species, 1000 m.
the sp49 is over 2000m
probably is different two species?
timoinsects Posted - 17/10/2012 : 17:11:01

it is hairless.

Surely, Arhopalus .
It might be A. deceptor (Sharp, 1905) or A. tibetanus (Sharp, 1905), both described from Tibet.
Are the eyes pubescent or hairless?
