Krikken ( NBCL ) ; N Kutacane : Tanah-Merah ( 03°31’N , 097°47’E ), 6.1972, leg. Krikken ( NBCL ) . Bengkulu : South Bengkulu : Manna , leg. Knappert ( NBCL ) . Sumatera Barat : Bukittinggi [Fort de Kock], leg. Jacobson ( NBCL ) ; Rimbo Panti ( 0°21’N , 100°41’E ), 24. – 25.2.2002 , leg. G. Riedel ( NHMW ) . Sumatera Utara : Simalungun, Dolok Merangir: Deli ( 03°06’N , 099°03’E ), 200 m , 31.5.– 1.6.1972 , leg. Krikken ( NBCL ) . The distribution of Scopaeus testaceus , which is widespread throughout the Oriental region, was revised by Frisch (2003: 672 – 674) . Accordingly, the species is proven for Borneo, Sulawesi , Sumatra and Java . Old records for Indonesia , which need confirmation by examination of reference specimens, were published by Bernhauer (1922: 230 ; Sunda Islands), Bernhauer & Schubert (1912: 252 ; Java , Sumatra ) and Cameron (1930: 346 , Sumatra Utara: Medan; 1936: 52, Jawa Tengah : Cilacap [Tjilatjap]). Fauvel (1886: 147) published records for Sulawesi , Sumatra and Java under the name S. suturalis Kraatz , a junior synonym of S. testaceus ( Frisch 2003: 672 ) . Records from New Guinea ( Biswas & Biswas 1995: 281 , Cameron 1931: 173 , Last 1966: 3 , Scheerpeltz 1933: 1270 ) are implausible and probably refer to related members of the S. laevigatus species group ( Frisch 2003 ). Scopaeus testaceus is here for the first time recorded for Aceh, Bengkulu and Sumatera Barat.
