ahhh
Hi folks, just to throw my two cents in here ... I think these photos are of O. insignis, which is known from the coastal ranges in central and southern California, rather than O. valida. Note that the elytral vittae are contiguous, which is a good first indication.

Moved from Longhorned Beetles.

it's for sure none of the three
...but Ortholeptura valida is definitely a good candidate

 
I agree...
...Ortholeptura valida.

 
Thank you v belov & Ted
