Remarks. Our specimens represent the first record of this species in Terengganu, although this species is widespread in mainland Southeast Asia. We observed several more color variations of this species (see Adžić, 2021). Two distinct coloration groups include the uniform ( Figs 7A, 7B View FIGURE 7 ) and patterned ( Figs 7C, 7D View FIGURE 7 ). For the uniform coloration, light brown and gray were observed in our specimens, with the former being the most common. Specimens of patterned coloration are normally darker than the uniform-colored specimens and bear distinct darker patterns on the pronotum and hind femora.

Distribution. Myanmar [ type locality], Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam.
