03F1102DFFFD0C61B4B5706BFD07A5D9.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The color pattern of the new species, with its brick-red pronotum, scutellum, and elytra, differs from the unicolored black Platygeniops exspectans. Platygeniops elongatus is much more slender and dorsoventrally distinctly complanate. The light brown pilosity of P. elongatus is dense on the posterior declivities of the elytra and on the pygidium, in contrast to the virtually glabrous dorsum of P. exspectans. The comparatively short tarsi of P. exspectans may be a female feature. There are various subtle differences in the microsculpture, and Figs. 1 – 3 best illustrate the shape and microsculpture of the elytra.	en	Jákl, Stanislav, Krikken, Jan (2011): Description of a second species in the enigmatic Southeast Asian genus Platygeniops (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Cetoniinae).

Abdominal venter of female transversely convex, lacking impression. Mesotarsi and metatarsi of female slightly shorter than in males. Notes. The label data of the male paratype originated from an insect dealer. As such, the record from the Cameron Highlands, in our view, requires verification. The left protarsus partly missing in the holotype and was photographically mirrored from right side for the figures.	en	Jákl, Stanislav, Krikken, Jan (2011): Description of a second species in the enigmatic Southeast Asian genus Platygeniops (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Cetoniinae).
