How sure are you about Leiopus sp.? This is mostly an European species. I did not find any reports from East Asia, only as far as Iran and Russia. What about Callimetopus sp. and for example Callimetopus capito?? Not sure at all! But definitely a Lamiinae. https://apps2.cdfa.ca.gov/publicApps/plant/bycidDB/wdetails.asp?id=36350&w=o
