Distribution: Philippines : Mindanao ( Bukidnon , Zamboanga del Norte *) Type deposition: HOLOTYPE ( ♂ )— National Museum of Natural History , Paris. Scientific synonym: Cereopsius cabigasi Vives 2005 Note. Vives (2005) described Cereopsius cabigasi indicating a relation with C. luctor due to the elytral pattern. In reality, this taxon can show four to six elytral spots (six in C. luctor ), a scape apically enlarged (conical in C. luctor ), a more or less yellowish pubescence (pure white in C. luctor ) and a variable pronotal band of pubescence. The examination of genitalia revealed that C. mimospilotus is actually very closely related to C. quaestor , from which it differs in the reddish unicolor antennae (black and with antennomere 5 ringed of white pubescence in C. quastor ). Nonetheless, some male specimens with bicolour antennae and females with indistinct white antennomeres call into question the validity of this taxon.
