There is a review by Wang Wenkai Jiang Shunan, „China mud color longicorn genus Uraecha Thomson Classification of (Coleoptera: CERAMBYCIDAE: Lamiinae),“ Entomotaxonomia, 2000, Vol.22, No.1, p.45-47.
It is in Chinese and Google translation is terrible, but I was able to identify a very similar species (see photo below) as U. angustus (Pascoe, 1865) |

I think Uraecha angustus P. is possible.
Thank you. |

There is a slippery branching in the published key for Uraecha: not easy to decide whether the tips of elytra rounded (I cannot understand each elytron or both) or truncate.
I have to confess that I am not completely sure in ID. |

OK, to add a bit more confusion to the appeal of Xavier here I am placing a photo much more similar to the type specimen.
In fact, I thought it to be just a colour variation of the species shown by me above. |

Then the thesis 2. in the key to Uraecha is misleading. I don't see much difference in the elytra tips in the two beetles placed by me here. |

Yes, I agree.
I will add another key using Gressitt's book (1951). |
