Bonjour

M'a l'air d'être une femelle appartenant au genre Nyoma ? Regardez du côté de fuscosignata ?

Thank you! So, not Apomecynini, but Desmiphorini, Nyoma fuscosignata (Breuning, 1948).
The beetle fits perfectly the original description, only a bit larger - 6.5 versus 5 mm in the description. Described from Congo, but was recorded from Uganda as well.
Another specimen is here at the Forum, with a bit more irregular colour pattern, but otherwise very similar.

I have specimens in collections that measure about 7 mm or even 7.5 mm and very small ex from the same locality, I have it from Togo Ghana RCI Cameroon, and the species is known from RDC; Kivu from RCA, and Sudan, I can't find any sign from Uganda?
But it seems logical to me in the area since there is Sudan and the extreme north east of RDC .........

According to Titan database, Uganda is given in your paper:
TEOCCHI Pierre, JIROUX Eric & SUDRE Jérôme, 2004, Synonymies, diagnoses et bionomie de quelques Cerambycidae africains (10ème note) 2ème partie (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae), Les Cahiers Magellanes 39: 1-32, but yes, for a synonym Nyoma camerunensis.

Yes indeed, I had not integrated it in my file that's why I couldn't find it!
Here it is integrated now ....
