Initially, two males and three females available in this material were identified as representing Coptocercus quatuordecimsignatus sumatranus Hüdepohl, 1992, a subspecied described from northern Sumatra based on the female holotype. A further, more profound study of the Malaysian specimens and them comparison with the holotypes of C. q. sumatranus, C. q. celebensis Schwarzer, 1926, C. q. quatuordecimsignatus Schwarzer, 1926 and a number of non-type specimens of the nominative subspecies not only confirmed the initial identification as being correct, but also led to the conclusion of the species independence of C. sumatranus. Later, one male (from Malacca) and one female (collected in Thailand), both received from the Natural History Museum of Denmark (NHMD), as well as the Sumatran female obtained from Dr. Sergey V. Murzin (Moscow, Russia), only strengthened the opinion of the full species status of C. sumatranus. Besides this, when studying the original description of Coptocercus javanicus Wang, 1995, the attention has been paid to the very strong similarity of this species to C. sumatranus. However, in the revision of the genus Coptocercus [Wang, 1995], in which C. javanicus was originally described, it was only compared to C. pascoei Wang, 1995 (Kai Islands, Indonesia), while C. quatuordecimsignatus and its subspecies, including C. sumatranus, were completely omitted. Through the courtesy of Dr. Maxwell V.L. Barclay, Dr. Michael F. Geiser and Mr. Keita Matsumoto (BMNH) I have received high-quality pictures of all specimens of the type series, namely, the holotype (male) and two paratypes (both females) of C. javanicus (Figs 12–17). Their detailed study revealed the identity of C. sumatranus and C. javanicus. ABSTRACT. Based on the first records of Coptocercus sumatranus Hüdepohl, 1992, stat.n., from the western and earstern parts of Malaysia, as well as from Thailand, the genus Coptocercus Hope, 1841 is new to the faunas of Indochina and Borneo. A new taxonomic status and a new synonym are established: Coptocercus sumatranus Hüdepohl, 1992, stat.n. = Coptocercus javanicus Wang, 1995, syn.n. Morphological features of C. sumatranus and C. quatuordecimsignatus Schwarzer, 1926 are provided, the main differences between these species outlined, and a map of their distributions is given.

New data on the taxonomy and geographic distribution of Oriental species of the genus Coptocercus Hope, 1841 (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Phoracanthini)
