I would say a Falsomesosella. One of the seven species known from Vietnam...

According to Junsuke Yamasako, this one is:

Falsomesosella grisella (White) 1858, described from Hong Kong and known from SE China and Taiwan. This record would be the first for Vietnam.

Ok, so it's Falsomesosella grisella (White, 1858).
Good data for Vietnam !

Here a specimen from Taïwan.

Hi Larry,
Obviously, this sp is different from F. grisella by basal elytron with a granulated row.
And it should be Macropraonetha pterolophioides (Gressitt, 1942), you can find the type photo on net.

Junsuke Yamasako agrees, sorry for missing the lack of a cicatrix on the scape.

Thank you to Bi and Xavier,

Larry B.
