12 mm. Sabah, Borneo, Malaisie.
J'ai identifié le spécimen de gauche comme Rhaphuma reticulata (Jordan, 1894).
L'exemplaire de droite, avec son échancrure sur la ligne noire longitudinale, est-il le mâle de cette espèce ou une espèce différente ?
Là est la question.

Hello Xavier. I sent to your e-mail a paper by Dauber with the description of similar Rhaphuma from Borneo.
It is not the same species, but maybe this helps you to move further.

Thank you, Vitali... maybe we can found the ID of a species from Java that Gerard sent a long time ago.

The species from Java looks too much different. Raphuma barriesi from the Dauber's article seems very similar to the Xavier's right specimen, but yet not the same. Dauber indicates Raphuma vittata as a species close to R. barriesi, but a few features indicated there seem also different.

Well, thanks in first to Vitali to have send me this article (but I knew it). I don't think that my right species is Rhaphuma barriesi, but only a variation of Rhaphuma reticulata.
On a long serie (15 specimens), I can see that black lines are changing. I can't see other difference beetween these 2 specimens, ...for the moment.
Thanks a lot to you two.
