Acalolepta bifasciata type has black bands,
The type of Monohammus Kinganus Pic, 1921 is uniform, as you can see here

there are A. bifasciata without black band, an individual variation (syn. of kinganus is probably correct, but I haven't studies the type in detail), A. bretschneideri has different antennal tomentation, other blue markings at the body and is more parallel-sided. Altogether this are very nice sps.

It is you the specialist of these animals Andreas.
A.Bretschneideri also seems to me less brilliant ?
