Description. Integument dark-brown; parts of mandibles, margins of pronotum, and elytral suture. blackish; apical third or fourth of elytra darker.

Dorsal face of head ( Fig. 354 ) coarse and somewhat sparsely punctate centrally, gradually coarser, more abundant and confluent laterally; area behind eyes coarsely, confluently punctate. Clypeus coarsely, abundantly punctate. Labrum ( Fig. 29 ) smooth, glabrous laterally, and somewhat coarsely punctate and with short hair centrally, mainly near central projection. Superior ocular ( Fig. 93 ) lobe not notably separated from base of antenna. Submentum with piliferous punctures; anterior edge slightly elevated throughout extension. Mandibles as in Fig. 122 . Antennae as in Fig. 215 .

Dorsal surface of tibiae rounded. Metatarsomere V (without claws) longer than I-III together ( Fig. 258 ).

Dimensions in mm (F). Total length (including mandibles), 17.4; prothorax: length, 3.2; anterior width, 3.5; posterior width, 3.2; humeral width, 4.4; elytral length, 9.8. Dimensions according to Lameere (1912): “Long de 17 millimètres”.

Geographical distribution. Tropical Africa and Vietnam ( Fig. 322 ).

Material examined. VIETNAM, Vinh Phuc: Tam Dao National Park, F, VII.14-27.1992, N. Katsura coll. ( ZKCO).

Types, type locality. Lameere (1912) described the species based on a pair: “Semio (pays de Niam-Niam), um mâle du Musée de Berlin: Camerum (Jardim botanique de Victoria), une femelle du Musée de Hambourg ”.

Comments. As seen above, Stenandra kolbei was originally described from Central Africa, but Ziro Komiya (personal communication), confirmed that the specimen studied by us was collected in Vietnam. We do not know if the species was introduced in Asia. However, in the last few decades, Vietnam has imported great numbers of exotic trees for tree farms, besides a great amount of wood importation for manufacture.

According to the Embassy of Denmark, Hanoi (http://www.ambhanoi.um.dk): “Around 70-80% of the raw material used in the woodworking and furniture industry are imported. Vietnam has scarce resources of forest areas with timber for manufacturing use”, and “The lumber from Vietnam today is of rather low quality which forces the manufacturers to import their raw materials. Most of these are from the neighboring countries Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia and Indonesian, but also largely from the US, Southern America, New Zealand and other places. The imported woods are oak, pine, eucalypts, and peach among others”.
