I do not think so: Cacia shirupiti is a species endemic from Taiwan, which has a rather different pattern (here).
This is very similar to Cacia parumpunctata (here), which, nevertheless, shows an entire elytral band.
A variety?

Hello Francesco.
Thanks for helping.
Mine is a male, could there be differences in gender?
I think you are right though.
