From what I can see in the picture, it would be Planodema mourgliai Teocchi, 1994. However, check with P flavosparsa Aurivillius or P multilineata Breuning but I don't think it's the latter!
Check and tell me?

What is the correct tribe ? Theocridini or Theocrini ?

Jerome,
I couldn't find a picture of P. mourgliai, but I found photos of the other two species, and it does not appear to match either of them very well.

Thanks for all your help.

Probably it's mourgliai but it's a picture and there are characters I don't see (Pronotum thorn and others). Could you give me the exact location of this insect?
Have a good day
