I am not sure that the first specimen is equal to others (they are females ). By using Lameere's key
and observing the proportion among the first antennal joints

the only doubt may be between bonnii (Sumatra) et wallacii (Borneo), whose elytral granulation seems to be the only difference. |

Merci Francesco pour cette clé, Elytre sans granulations, « Pronotum très large », antennes à 1er article plus court que les 3e et 4e réunis, tarses peu élargis C’est surtout le dernier critère qui est le plus frappant et pronotum très large qui pose problème. Alors R. wallacei ? Même si dans cette clé il manque au moins une espèce, déjà passée sur le forum. |

Specimens shown by Andre are both R. blumei females. R. bonni is located in Borneo and Sumatra and wallacei is located in Borneo. The antennal length of bonni female rich the middle of elytra. R. wallacei type was found in Sarawak and own a particular uniform brown elytral coloration. |
