Think, Antennopothyne aureomaculata Hüdepohl, 1990 (decribed from Myanmar, tribe Agapanthiini) is a match. The colour pattern and rough elytral surface are both exceptional in the group this species belongs to, and resemble very closely certain Brentidae: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nickadel/8141781849 which, for their extremely hard exosceleton, are a bad prey for birds.

Long first antennal segment does not fit Dorcaschematini.
