Look Hyllisia aethiopica Breuning , 1974 in which it looks great ?? I like the picture and she looks great.
Or maybe Hyllisia imitans Duvivier ? But from the photo I doubt ! |

Dear Jérôme. There is already Hyllisia identified by you as H. imitans at the Forum here.
It does not show any white antennae segments.
In fact, my photo is not good, it does not show the white 9th segment correctly. It is very peculiar, covered with dense white pubescence, while the neighboring segments have only scarce dark hairs.
So, Hyllisia aethiopica? |

No! Indeed it is not even a Hyllisia !
I had not seen the 9th antennomere completely white ! In fact, this is the genus Anauxesida and probably lineata ?
what do you think? Like what the pictures really are misleading !! |

Yes, Anauxesida seems to be correct, but certainly not A. lineata, if this photo is not confused with anything else.
A photo of another species, Anauxesida longicornis, can be found here, and this beetle does have a white 9th antennomere, but no white lines on body.
I have little literature on African Agapanthiini. |

Bonjour
Please note the photo appearing on the site you have containing Anauxesida lineata is not a Anauxesida: there is a Anauxesis !!
As for the other picture, there does not seem to be longicornis but cuneata. 2 species mentioned above but it is very different from lineata I have 3 or 4 species in collection and lineata seems most likely !
Nevertheless, lineata does not have the marked lines as your specimen ! |

Correction : the photo in the American site may be longicornis but much like cuneata !
But these photos! So never easy especially with the little difference that there is between some of these species. |

I sent a message to your address.
Anauxesida and Anauxesis are confused also here. That is why I wrote in my previous comment, that the photo of Anauxesida lineata is confused with anything else.
I have at the moment 4 specimens of this species, all showing clearly white lines.
Finally, I have also another species of Anauxesida without white lines, but with 8th, 9th and 10th antennomeres white. I'll try to make a photo this night. |

Yes ! there is confusion about this picture with a Anauxesis can be atrata ?
This is not Anauxesida lineata that's for sure . |

Sorry, guys, sometimes the images displayed are wrong, as the discussion indicates.
I have removed all the images under Anexausida, until they can be cleared up.
