Tam Dao, July, 15mm. Oberea?? I know they are tough but with the black spot on the pronotum I hope if might be easier to ID |

41.78 KB GRESSITT J. L., 1939. A Collection of Longicorn Beetles from T'ien-mu Shan, East China. Notes d'Entomologie Chinoise 6 (4). Fig.16, Pl.II.
If there is no other Oberea with such a black spot, it should be Oberea unipunctata Gressitt, 1939 = Oberea uninotaticollis Pic, 1939 |

There should be at least two species (I have seen two distinct specimens); may be the synonymization was not correct. But I had not time to check the types. |

in some specimens, hide legs are black, in others light; in some specimens, the elytra are rather light, while in others rather dark; some specimens has evident hairs along suture, others not. Moreover, there are not so many species living both in Zhejiang and Thailand. |

You should be right, Thomas. Oberea unipunctata Gressitt, 1939 from Zhejiang (China) has " prothorax testaceous with an invertex cordiform black spot on center of disc" and the holotype has the posterior femurs much less dark. |
