I agree. But strangely enough, I can't find this species anywhere...
To go further, it is very important to know from where comes from this species ! |

I do not think: Anaches is a genus more closely related to Sthenias.
Please observe the length of the hind legs in comparison with the elytral apex, the elytral shape, which is not cylindrical, and the antennae.
The habitus of this species fits with Pterolophia.
The lateral black spots on the pronotum is another character typical of Pterolophia. |

| I have checked more than 200 holotype pictures, all my books, and ...nothing with such white bands. Why not an undescribed species ? |

| This species seems very close to this one. Does it really come from China ? |
