BeetlesWhat’s that Cerambycid?
Hi Bugman,
Thanks for being here. Talking to people about insects is part of my job and I am spreading the word about your wonderful site. I was asked to identify this long-horned beetle, but I have only limited collection information. It was found at a residence in a new subdivision north of Yuba City, California, approximately 45 miles due north of Sacramento in the Central Valley. I don’t know if it was associated with hardwoods or softwoods, but I do know that the neighborhood is a new subdivision and most of the landscape trees in the area are young hardwoods with stone fruit orchards within a mile. The body length is 1.5 centimeters. Thank you for your help,
Margaret Stelmok

Hi Margaret,
We are turning to Eric Eaton for help with your Cerambycid, and await his reply. Here is his response: ” The cerambycid is another Synaphaeta guexi. Boy, this must be their year!”
