Moved from nigricornis group. Great photo!

I'm comfortable placing this pair in Black-horned species....due to the intense black color on the male's head and pronotum. While there are Black-horned TCs that can resemble Forbes' TCs --and can only be distinguished by the pulse rate of their song -- as far as I know, there are no deep black colored Forbes'.
