Trypoxylon

Thank you!
Correct me if I am wrong but due to its size it can only be Subgenus Trypargilum.

 
Yes.
This is probably a male T. lactitarse. Nearly identical at first glance to T. politum, but the white pubescence gives it away.

 
Thanks Eric!
T. lactitarse - pertaining to white pubescence, I saw similar comment by Dr. Matthias Buck on Photo#54555 and was hoping that I would get a comment from one of you gentlemen. Thanks again!
