page 105, fig, 1204 Parhoplothrix szetschuanicus Breuning seems to be Mimothestus annulicornis Pic
About Parhoplothrix szetschuanicus , once I have checked several specimens in the Museum of Sun Yat-sen University. There are distinct differences with Mimothestus annulicornis. The specimen has the sparser and coraser granules on basal elytra, and the antennae are not fringed with dense and long hairs below. The left is Mimothestus annulicornis (from Yunnan). The right I tend to think of it as Parhoplothrix szetschuanicus(From Guangxi), the color is slightly fading compared with the fresh specimen. 96.65 KB
