I identified this cerambycinae as Imbrius diehli Hüdepohl, 1989. Do you agree ?

This insect was determined today by Alexandr Miroshnikov as Imbrius ephebius Pascoe, 1866 male.

Yes, I agree, too. A female, and a bit smaller than average.

The arrangement of pubescence and structure of the pronotum on this specimens is a good match to the pair of I. diehli in my collection that were identified by Holzschuh.
Sometimes, I. simulator and I. ephebus have their pubescence rubbed a little which makes them look a little like this species.
Imbrius diehli is not common.

Yes, comparing to holotype picture (but a male) it seems ok for me: same apical dark band.
