This is my first Vesperidae.
It came on the UV-lighted sheet, at Punjen, North Thailand, on June 12th 2015.
Size: 38 mm.
No idea of its name. Could you help me ?

This is not Vesperidae, it's a Meloidae

Oups, you are perfectly right, it is Eletica castanea.
I am under one hundred tons of shame... my only excuse is that it is so different of the numerous Meloidae I have collected around the world...
Thank you for putting me in the right way !

According to BioLib, Eletica castanea is a synonym of Eletica testacea (Olivier, 1789)
