This is a source of confusion to me.
I received this beetle as Chlorophorus notabilis cuneatus. If fact "notabilis cuneatus" should belong to Demonax. This beetle is obviously Chlorophorus, but there are too many species with a similar colour pattern.
Can anyone help with it? |

I create a new topic to compare specimens from Laos and Japon. |

Well, it appears I had too little experience with Demonax. I did not expect these "spines" that small. If fact these were just small teeth visible under a microscope. Demonax then... |

Clytus notabilis Pascoe, 1862 really belongs to Demonax, not to Chlorophorus! In the linked topic, the spines on the antennae are well visible.
Has this specimen got no spines? |

Species also unclear for me, and I don't know what thinking!
Have a look to this topic. |
