Nice find and nice image
Mike, we just wanted to point out in case you haven't found them yet that there are about 100 Cerambycid images sitting on the base Cerambycidae page here that could use your expertise. Some already have Ids and just need to be put away and we'll try to get to those, but quite a few are yet unconfirmed. And Thanks for all your help here.
