Pterolophia (Lychrosis) humerosa (Thomson, 1865) probably.

Your specimen could be a rubbed one, look at this one from Laos.

Just noticed that the antennal segments are different on my specimen to humerosa.

I've had this specimen under a microscope and I can confirm it isn't rubbed or damaged (fine hairs present on elytra and colour intact) I assume this is another Pterolophia species that we are unaware of.
