Diagnosis. Medium sized, elongate oval species (body length 4.0– 4.4 mm). Elytra with elytral subbasal testaceous band complete, its anterior margin almost rectilinear (Fig. 8). Apical part of median lobe rather long, in lateral view with dorsal side only very slightly curved (Fig. 25).

Distribution. Laccophilus javanicus is recorded from the Indonesian Islands of Java, Bali and Sumbawa (Brancucci, 1983; Hendrich & Balke, 1995). We here add records from Lombok Island (Fig. 41). However we question the occurrence of L. javanicus on Sumbawa. The known specimen, a female in NHMB, differs in elytral sculpture and colouration; it probably represents another species, but a single female cannot be reliably identified.
