Beaverium latus ( Eggers 1923) comb. n.

Previous genus: Xyleborus

Elytral disc flat or slightly concave, declivital concavity not covering the whole width of elytrae; elytra attenuated laterally. Conspicuous erect hair-like setae on declivity, unlike most other Beaverium spp. Striae black, interstriae lighter, brown to red.

Length: 7.5 mm

Discussion. Browne (1961) included the species in the " major group", an artificial group containing species which belong to unrelated groups.

Biology: Relatively abundant in Borneo.
