I have reviewed the biology etc of both species in my paper (no 160) available from my website www.calodema.com; other papers on Agrianome spinicollis can be found in papers 112, 213 and 270 also available free from the website Best regards, trevor I think the beetle mentioned from South Australia is Agrianome spinicollis but the beetle illustrated here with the original letter from Kate as the Poinciana Longicorn is actually Parandra frenchi which is in another subfamilty, the Parandrinae (Cerambycidae), and which does not occur in South Australia.
