Monochamus notatus, Northeastern Pine Sawyer
Much larger, lighter colored, and longer of face than M. scutel*latus. Has light-colored scutellum, but not brilliant white as in scutel*latus.
Head is broadest below eyes.

Female.
Looks like this is probably a female of M. scutellatus. Even in profile you can see the white scutellum (tiny triangle betwen the wing covers).
