Aegomorphus modestus
This does superficially resemble Graphisurus and a lot of the Acanthocinini and Acanthoderini can be tricky to separate.

In the case of Aegomorphus versus Graphisurus - compare the relative lengths of the antennomeres. In the former, the 3rd and 4th are quite long and then become noticeably shorter. In the latter, the antennomeres gradually shorten in length. Also, the scape in Aegomorphus is more club-shaped than it is in Graphisurus. Finally, Aegomorphus has raised shining callosities on the pronotal disk, absent in Graphisurus.
