It's a Dorysthenes, and I'd say Lophosternus. But what bothers me is that there's no species of Lophosternus cited from Sichuan yet. I had first thougth about Cyrtognathus paradoxus but the color of the elytra and the shape of the pronotum don't match.
The species that seems most likely is certainly Lophosternus dentipes (perhaps a first report for Sichuan).
