I have searched and I can't find it! Look maybe at a form of P (Pseudobl......) analis? But frankly not convinced! Or P (Pseudo......) basilewskyi to which it would resemble more but considering the distribution I doubt that it is that?
Phytoecia are very complicated I have a box full of Phytoecia and 50% are either undetermined or determined with doubt or "cf" and it is sometimes frustrating! There are clearly new things but not knowing this group which deserves to be seriously revised I dare not go further.
What is incredible is that it is collected in Gauteng not far from Pretoria and that the locality has often been hunted ....

Yes thanks Jérôme, fits to Pseudoblepisanis.

This insect is a Phytoecia can you just tell me if it is the sub-genus Blepisanis or Pseudoplepisanis?
