7 mm. Should belong to Similosodus. Reminds S. transversefasciatus (Breuning, 1938)

I have same specimens from Laos. It's not Similosodus (Transversesodus) transversefasciatus , but a Similosodus s.s.

With Breuning's key in Laos fauna, 1970):
third antennal segment longer than fourth ......Similosodus sg
third antennal segment as long as fourth.......Transversesodus sg

To follow, the original description of Similosodus atrofasciatus (Pic, 1925). I think it could be this species...

Thank you. This may be the case. It is pity only that a white fourth antenna segment is not mentioned in the description.

Yes, Pic's descriptions are too short and lack of illustration; I will try to make a picture of the type specimen someday...



8 mm. Hua Phan, north-east Laos. Male & female.

In fact, this species should be Similosodus unifasciatus (Pic, 1934) like the type here
