According to me, this species should not belong to Glenea, due to the missing of the elytral apical spines.
The pattern is curiously similar to that of Saperda scalaris... could you detect a lateral ridge, carina, on the elytral side? |

Oh my... Here's a picture of lateral and venteral views of this guy.
I dont think there is any ridge or carina on both sides of the elytra.
So it seems a Saperda?
Thank you Francesco.

| I asked Meiying Lin to look at these photos, since she is very interested in Glenea, in fact she is describing the one from Guizhou right now ! The one from Laos, she says, is G. subcrucifera Breuning. I hope she can study the Bornean species eventually, however there are many challenges, especially having long series of each species. |

| Meiying Lin ask me the Glenea "subcrucifera" (female) from Laos for more study. |

I think what Dan said is that subcrucifera is the species from Laos, not the one discussed here. |

| Meiying has already selected a name for the new one from China, and she has numerous specimens. I suspect it will be published soon this year. |

True. Meiying give me the name of this nova species, but let's wait for her publication. |

Hello Xavier, I come back to visit this topic again. I am wondering whether the name you got before was either G. wenhsini or G. linwenhsini? I had checked the book, In memory of Mr. Wenhsin Lin, and found no match of my specismen to any of the two above especially from patch pattern or body shape. I thought it could be that the name is still under publication and wait for another 3 months. But, too long now, maybe I should go to ask Lin?

As I said in my post, Meiying sent me back my Glenea, and it's , for her, Glenea subcrucifera Breuning, 1968.
Your species is close to Glenea linwenhsini Lin, 2013 described from Guizhou. |
