Moved tentatively... looks like you've had it before --

Moved from Acanthocinini.

good guess, but those are tough... how about Leptostylus?

Leptostylus
Looks alot like L. transversus with the broad postmedial transverse
white fascia and what look to me like dorsal tubercles on the
pronotum. Dr. Thomas still needs to look at it.

like Styloleptus biustus to me, but a straight-on dorsal view is really needed to ne sure.
