Can you help me with identification of this species from Malaysia, Taman Negara?
The size of specimen is 12 mm.

It is surely a Pothyne (Agapanthiini), probably P. griseolineata Breuning, 1940, but I'd need a lateral view of the head in order to be sure.

You are right, Petr, I had forgotten this genus!
But the Bornean species that Hayashi described as Pothyne mamutensis belongs to Nyctimenius too.

Thus, it should be Nyctimenius varicornis (Fabricius, 1801).
Is the ventral pubescence ochreous or white?
