I found it in NE Thailand.
Its size is about 20-30 mm.
I have no idea what it is.
Thank you for your help in advance.

This specimen corresponds to "Sthenias pascoei Ritsema, 1888" figured in Breuning, 1970 (Lamiinae from Laos) and in the Iconography of Chinese Longhorn Beetles.
The main character seems to be the dark eltyral base with a light humeral spot; nonetheless, several characters do no correspond to the description Breuning did in his monograph (1963): antennomere IV should be black, the dark median band of elytra is absent... this should be the true Sthenias pascoei (described from Sumatra!).
I do not know whether they really are the same species.
