Mimothestus delkeskampi Breuning, 1961: 311 –312.

Material examined. Specimens not seen.

Discussion. Breuning (1961) described this species based on two female specimens (holotype collected from Longtoushan, Guangdong province, and one paratype collected from Shuyuanshan, China, originally spelled as Lung-tao-shan and Shu-yuen-shan). According to Breuning’s original description, this species is very similar to M. atricornis as the elytral surface is irregularly pubescent and the pronotum is finely punctate. It can be distinguished from M. atricornis by its spined elytral apex versus rounded; apices of antennomeres 3–11 with dark brown pubescence and a fringe of hairs instead of antennomeres completely black and with a fringe of hairs; pronotum with black mottle instead of evenly covered with yellow to lutescent pubescence.

Distribution. China (Guangdong).
