Are you sure that this specimen comes from Thailande ??
It is strangely close to Rhaphuma bivittata Aurivillius, 1916 which is a...Bornean species ! |

specimen came papered and that is my hand written label taken off the data on the specimen. Obtained it in the 90's. That is all I can add.
No spines on any antennal segments. |

...but in this topic, Francesco speaks about Rhaphuma from Malysia peninsular (Cameron Highlands) with similar pattern; so, why not in Thailand ? Do you know where is Pak Chow ?
...and here, a species from the same group |

According to this site, there is no Thai locality called Pak Chow. Pak Chom? |

Well, I am sure you have received specimens and could not perfectly read the writing of the collector. I do the best I can. I see a Pak Chom, perhaps it is that site. |

Collector said he took a long hike into Khao Yai NP on that day. Don't know if this helps but I am trying! |
