China, Sichuan 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? |

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

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? |

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...![](images/icon_smile_blush.gif) |
