No, it is not Tetraglenes; it is Antennohyllisia Breuning, 1963.
Here I have provided a picture of the only described species (Antennohyllisia rondoni Breuning, 1963 from Laos) but I am not sure that it is the same species.
I can send you its description (in German) by email. |

OK, thanks!
So, Tetraglenes at my material too is present (larger beast, conspecific to the image under your link). |

Yes, but I have also linked a picture of the holotype of Antennohyllisia rondoni.
It is 9 mm long.
Does it correspond to your specimen? |

No, my beetle corresponds to alive exemplar from the first picture (elongated pronotum with longitudinal furrows, strongly porrect tips of elytra, and besides, short antennas, far not reaching tops).12 mm.
A picture I shall make later, probably, it will be possible to determine up to a species. |

Sorry, you are right!
It is Tetraglenes rufescens Pic, 1927, a species endemic from Vietnam. |

Well, thank you! But I all send a picture, just in case. Because there were some doubts that my brief description of signs has allowed to exclude: annamensis, bacillarius and hirticornis with flavovittatus :)
So, is it rufescens? |

This has the aspect of a true Tetraglenes.
By basing on the keys, it corresponds to Tetraglenes annamensis Breuning, 1943, which differs from hirticornis in its scarcely punctured pronotum.
It might also be hirticornis, but it is necessary to have both species side by side.
Actually, I do not directly know both your Vietnamese species... |
