It corresponds to the description of Pterolophia (Ale) fuscoplagiata Breuning, 1938, Pteropliini. |

Is it the type? I had the same doubt, but according to Breuning's key, that I have simplified in the key I provided in my paper about the Solomon cerambycids, P. salomonum should have "a black spot at each side of the pronotal base" not brown markings. |

Dear Francesco,
my spm is not the type only a spm det by Breuning accordingly this could be wrong, for last guaranty we need the type deposite in London, I never use Breuning's absurd key. |
