Likely Obereopsis obscuritarsis (Chevrolat): elytral punctuation is very well at obscuristarsis,
O variipes Chevrolat is small and punctuation is different, on the one hand, and punctuation of the pronotum is considerably less marked than in obscuratarsis and strong.
On the other hand, the elytral apex is generally stretched at obscuritarsis tip but also in variipes; however, it is less pronounced in this last!
At the apical stretching obscuritarsis really gives a marked concave apex.
