Longhorned beetle - Rhopalophora longipes

Longhorned beetle - Rhopalophora longipes
Henryetta, Okmulgee County, Oklahoma, USA
April 24, 2006
Size: aprox. 12mm
I looked in all 30 some pages of longhorns and did not find a close match.
May be Rhopalophora longipes plate 209 in Yanega Northeastern Longhorned Beetles.

Yes...
...this is Rhopalophora longipes (Say)

Rhopalophora longipes
Rhopalophora longipes looks like an excellent match to me. Especially the "long, clubbed femora" and "grayish elytra" described in Yanega. According to Yanega, Oklahoma would be within the western reaches of this species. Very nice photo!

 
Long horned beetle
Thanks, I did find it in my Checklist of Oklahoma Coleoptera.
I don't think there is a page for this so if someone could make one I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

Thought at first it might be an
Heterachthes, but can't find any images that look like yours. Will keep looking.
