Photographed at light trap. Identified as a Gonypetinae member from a separate upload of the same individual.

The individual appears morphologically like Majangella (not recorded in India so far, I think), such as the 'bump' on the pronotum and the shape, but lacks the serrations.

Adult

Biotope: Cultivated area of coco trees, papaya trees, banane trees
Timing et meteo: discovery 18 march 2024 dry season. Subadult (molted to adult on 13 Avril i.e,. 26 days after capture)
Size: Adult between 6 et 7 cm (depending if you count the wings.)
Note: As it had only 2 legs and a half left it was kept in an enclosure to wait for adult molt.
The legs have regrown but the posterior left leg is atrophied.

Let me know if we can make other photos of its anatomy that are useful for identification.

All these photos have measurements written on them. Let me know what other measurements would be useful.
The initial photos of the same individual can be found in two other observation here : https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/207564809

Note 22/05/2024 : I still have the individual alive, she is in Lille (France) do not hesitate to contact me if you think you can help identification in person, or you think you have a male individual that could reproduce with her.
