| One of the smallest species, probably Acalolepta griseipennis (Thomson, 1857), female. |

I attach another view of my specimen, from which it can be seen that this specimen is rather glaucous, its elytral punctuation is stronger than A.griseipennis, especially behind the humeral area, and seriate-punctate (except near scutellum), the first few striae converging posteriorly towards the suture, which is not the case for A.griseipennis, and the interstices between punctuations slightly but distinctly raised; I wonder if it could be A.persimilis, which is very briefly described by Gahan from Sumatra and Andaman, and said to be close to A.punctifrons in size, coloration & punctuation (that makes my specimen a bit small!).
