Un couple faisant partie d'un lot de Xylotrechus du sud-ouest de l'Inde (état de Kamataka). Je suppose que les deux appartiennent à la même espèce, malgré une coloration très variable d'un individu à l'autre.
Mâle 14mm, femelle 13mm

Abdominal segments 1 to 3 have white triangular lateral spots. Tarsi dark (4 ex. like the depicted male) or red (the female shown here).
