Long-horned Beetle - Strangalepta pubera

Size: 9mm
Something's been feeding on this oak leaf. Could it be this beetle, or is this a flower longhorn?

Flower Longhorn
It's definately a lepturin. I'd say it's either Strangalepta pubera or an all black variation of S. abbreviata.

S. pubera
It does look like the S. pubera that's in the guide already. I'll go with that, figuring it's more likely than a variant S. abbreviata.
Thanks for the ID Chad.
