Photographed in Andasibe area.

Possibly Diadelia x-brunnea Breuning 1939?

Yes it could be that (x-brunnea) but also x fasciata (which seems to me can be a little more "compact" than the species in photo) retrospinosula or xfascioides or xfusca?
The Malagasy Diadelia are for some of them particularly complicated for me ..... The characters given are often subject to great variability (lateral spine, colouring of the elytral drawings etc ....)
Personally I will have a hard time naming this individual, it should be under the eyes and the determination will not be guaranteed!
