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.
