Seems to belong to Phytoeciini (or Saperdini, not for discussion).
Very hairy, two kinds of punctuation in elytra. |

Well, there are 35000 Cerambycidae species in the World. The probability to take photo of a new one is high 
I am happy this time all the beetles received their names.
Thank you a lot.

No problem
Well; hence, it is a male of Mystrocnemis bicolor bicolor Aurivillius, 1914.
The original description is in the digital Library here (p. 42-43).
It also is the first picture of a species of this genus on the Web... a thing to which we are already used   |

That is exactly what I meant about Saperdini - Phytoecini.
Sorry for missing locality. I placed several beetles at the Forum that day. All came from Tanzania. This one as well. |

I'd say a representative of the genus Mystrocnemis Quedenfeldt, 1882.
The genus belongs to Saperdini for Lamiaires as well, which strangely conserves Phytoecini for other genera.
Where is it from? |
