    Nice one! I always struggle so much with identifying them, it seems there's hardly any useful info online, so compliments on the identification. Posted 8 years ago

      Well it was the only one in the genus for which I found records from Fraser's Hill. But is seems T. allevatus is a bit of superspecies, split by some authorities... Posted 8 years ago
