Type locality: Ruby Mines, Myanmar. Type depository: NHMB. Pseudoechthistatus birmanicus : Pu 1992 : 601 [misidentification]. Pseudechthistatus (sic) birmanicus : Hua et al. 2009 : 465; Loebl and Smetana 2010 : 286 [partly identified]. Type material examined. Holotype (Fig. 18), male, "Hte Birmanie / Mines des Rubis / 1200 m- 2300 m / Doherty 1890", " Pseudechthistatus / birmanicus / mihi Type! / det. Breuning" examined through three photographs taken by J. Yamasako and N. Ohbayashi in NHMB, 2012. Redescription (based on quality photographs, and modified from the original description). Male. Body length 21.0 mm, body width 7.5 mm. Body dark brown, body covered with tawny and brown pubescence. Head with four short tawny vittae behind upper eye lobes. Antennal scape with sparse light yellowish pubescence, basal half of 3rd antennomere with sparse fine light yellowish pubescence. Pronotum with paired discal longitudinal band rather long, longer than two-thirds of pronotal length. Elytron with pubescence predominantly brick-red; middle pubescent band light yellowish, broad, well defined, nearly transverse, reaching suture; the preapical stripe same color as middle band, well developed, moderately broader at base. Body elongate. Antennae 1.7 times as long as body length, surpassing elytral apex by five antennomeres; 3rd antennomere 1.7 times as long as scape, 1.1 times as long as 4th antennomere; scape moderately punctured, 3rd antennomere sparsely punctured on basal half; scape to 3rd antennomere fringed beneath. Pronotum slightly longer than width at base, lateral spine short, slightly thickened at base with moderate acute apex; metasternum 1.8 times as long as mesosternal length. Elytra 1.6 times as wide as pronotal base at humeri, 1.8 times as long as humeral width; subparallel-sided in basal one-fourth, very weakly widened a little before middle, then moderately convergent toward subacute apices; disk sparsely and finely punctured, sparsely provided with large but flat granules extending to apical one-fourth; subbasal tubercle close to elytral base, moderately developed and raised, ca. 1.3 times as wide as scutellar width. Hindwings developed, distinctly longer than elytral length. Distribution (Map 1). Myanmar: Mandalay (Mogok = Ruby Mines). Remarks. This species is only known from its type locality, Ruby Mines (= Mogok), Myanmar at present. Based on our examination of photos of the holotype, the distribution of this species in Yunnan, reported by Pu (1992) is considered a misidentification of Pseudoechthistatus pufujiae sp. n., which is described in this paper.
