Any idea? I get lost in the Breuning's Glenea keys with near 1100 steps. |

I think it could be Glenea (s. str.) sylvia Thomson, 1879. Here you can read the original description. |

This is an interesting idea. I'll try to go through the original description. I have Glenea sylvia in my collection, which looks pretty much as this one. Do you really think that individual variations may so large? Or the cited beetle is something other(?). |

The linked specimen is Glenea (s. str.) fasciata (Fabricius, 1781), though sometimes identified as sylvia in the Web. Glenea sylvia should differ in the presence of a preapical spot rather than a band. G. calabarica (mentioned in the original description of G. sylvia) is a variety of G. fasciata. Both are present in the Gallery. |

I am still in doubts. According to the descriptions the colour pattern is simple in elytra of both G. fasciata and G. sylvia: a transverse light band in the basis, then black tomentose band and then a light band again in the last fourth, which is full in G. fasciata and interrupted at G. sylvia. Nothing is written about the light band in the middle of elytra. I'll work on it and let you know as soon as I have something new. |

Yes... that why I have written "could be"... I send you the key concerning this group as private email. |

J'opterai plus pour Glenea mephisto ? Regardez de votre côté ? |

Thank you, Jérôme. Similar indeed. I wonder how far the individual differences can go. Up to now, I have got two almost identical specimens. I'll have a more careful look this weekend. |

A mon avis, elle beaucoup plus semblable de G. apicaloides Breuning 1958. |

Francesco, you were right! Based on Teocchi et al. Synonymies, diagnoses et bionomie de quelques Lamiaires africains (15e note) (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae). Les Cahiers Magellanes 2010, ser. n.s., 1 : 1-27, Breuning's revision and holotype photo, it is undoubtedly Glenea (s. str.) apicaloides Breuning, 1958. Many thanks also to Jérôme for providing necessary materials. PS. The locality is also the same as in the above-cited paper: Kibale National Park. |
