13-16 mm.
Metalloleptura virescens (Aurivillius, 1911), de la sous-espèce laosensis pour Gressitt (1970) ?
Mais pas de trace sur BioLib de cette ssp.
A comparer aussi avec l'espèce citée de Borneo ?
Nouvelle espèce pour la galerie de notre forum.

Sorry, but it is not very reliable to follow Gressitt & Rondon, especially for Lepturinae, since majority of the species is missing there. Moreover, some names were changed meantime.
This is M. gahani Plavilstshikov, 1921.
M. virescens is clearly distributed in Borneo.
M. virescens laosensis as well as M. viridescens were already synonymizied with M. gahani.

Je pensais bien qu'il y avait un problème : Bornéo est éloigné du Laos !
Merci Tom !!

Merci beaucoup pour la photo Xavier and thank you very much for the identification and the news, Tom.
I have updated BioLib with these data.
Unfortunately, even if incomplete and still with errors, BioLib is the best worldwide Database of living and fossil species, with synonymies, pictures, distributions, intertaxa relationships. etc.
The work is enormous and moreover the systematic is still in progress...
