| Hi Xavier!! Yes, I think that your picture is the same species. This black blur colour on the elytra sutura is a great feature for determine the species, Pyrestes festus Holzschuh, 1998 |

| Sorry, but you should start again. This is not P. festus. Besides many other features, antennae are black in P. festus. |

Hi again, Pyrestes festus have antennae black and red!!!! Look the work Beschreibung von 68 neuen Bockkafern aus Asien, Uberwiegend aus China und zur Synonymie einiger Arten. Holzchuh, 1998. Here you can see a female of Pyrestes festus (the picture are in white and black), but you can apreciate the two colors, black and red, of the antennae. Also, the black blur in the suture of elytra is other point of determination, not seen with this patern in other species of Pyrestes.
This is my point of view.
Reviews are accepted!!! |

| Ok, it's curious that this specimen is very similar to the other one, less the coloration of antennae. Maybe a color variant for the same species??? a mystery!!! |

Hello to all.
For me these are two different species. The granulosites of the elytra is more coarse on the first beast. The color of the legs and antennae, but also the fifth article of the antennas are also different. |

| Hi Gerard! I think that the fifth article of antennae is very similar, looks different, I think, by the position of the picture. |
