Indonesia: Seram
Dimension = 13 mm.
I'm not able to identify its tribe ?
It looks like a Phoracanthini but antennae are not spined. The last segment of the maxillary palp is well developed.
I saw the same species (female) from Borneo (West Kalimantan) on ebay.
Your help is welcome for ID.

Thank you Francesco.
With the key, I obtain Tethionea strumosa Pascoe, 1869.
This insect is already know from Seram (or Ceram).

I have this sps from West-Papua and can confirm your ID, its maybe the biggest sps of the genus.

Thank you Andreas. I'm sure I saw a specimen of the same genus from Borneo on ebay, but unfortunately I haven't win the bid ! It was perhaps the same species or an other (new ?). We may have soon the answer ...
