Is this also Acalolepta cariosa? I am not sure how much variations there are in the punctuation of this species? There seems to be some differences from Robert's specimens. Acalolepta cariosa was formerly called Orsidis cariosa. There is also an Orsidis singaporensis Breuning, 1979 from Singapore. Anyone has its description?
Yes, Breuning's description is very brief: Close to O. proletaria, but the third segment of the antennae twice as long as the scape and lateral thorn of pronotum very short, conical and not bent. The length is 14 mm.
For my specimen, the third segment of the antennae is only 1.4 times as long as the scape. Otherwise, it is a bit hard to judge without the O. proletarius.
