Dans la base Titan, il y a 3 citations de cette espèce qui est nommée "Grammographus balyi" (Pascoe, 1859) :

- Clytus Balyi Pascoe 1859
- Demonax (Grammographus) balyi Gahan 1906

I do not know Rhaphuma trinotata Pic, 1923 , a species from south India. The description is short , but it is a red species with 3 X 2 black spots :

R. trinotata n. sp.
Elongatus, rufus, infra corpore nigro, albo fasciato, elytris in singulo nigro (1, 1, 1) trimaculatis.
Long. 12 mill. Indes Or.: Mercara. - A placer près de placida Pascoe.


On your specimen, I do not see spines at antennomera.

Demonax balyi (Pascoe, 1859)?
A little bit different than the holotype here, but I do not see other possible species.
