How do you separate crocatus from perrieri?

This is from Yaounde, Cameroon 14-15 mm.

Thanks,

Larry B.

It is Holorusius perrieri Fairmaire, 1898.
H. crocatus shows a yellowish coloration and four obsoletes bulges on the pronotum. Moreover, it has an exclusively Austral distribution (South Africa, Zimbabwe).
