Thanks, but…
There is something I do not get here: This image and another one that I posted before (see below) have both been identified as Anoplodera pubera (I'm assuming Anoplodera pubera and Strangalepta pubera refer to the same taxon), even though they look very different to me. For instance, check the shape of the thorax, the relative size of head and body, the length of the antenna articles. This is puzzling. Any thoughts?

Got it!
This is in fact Strangalepta abbreviata, a dark form. Thanks to Krista Hamilton for help with the id.
