Differential diagnosis. From Bl.sanguinithorax Bernhauer, 1911 ( Uzbekistan, Khiva): the shape of pronotum, the different dorsal punctures on pronotum and elytra, the colouration of abdomen, the setation on the apex of abdominal tergite six, etc. From Bl. filipponii Coiffait, 1982 ( Saudi Arabia): the different proportion of elytra, the sparser punctate of pronotum.
Etymology. I am very pleased to name this new species in honour of Dr. Dmitry Telnov (BMNH), a famous entomologist, who’s always ready to help his colleagues.
Distribution. NE India, Arunachal Pradesh.
