Help required with the id of this species from Koh Samui, Thailand, photographed on 21 March 2014.

Similar to the common X. globosa, but, on the elytra, the colours are reversed with the central stripe being golden instead of green.

I don't think that this is a Xystrocera. This is a Callichromatini; remembering Chloridolum klaesii Ritsema, 1889, but I am not sure if this item can be found in Thailand.

Thank you, Pierre. Yes, I agree with the genus. I have found some photos which look very similar to mine which are identified as C. thomsoni, but I am reluctant to say it is that species as they were photographed in Singapore.
