Anubis cf. hexastictus
orange and black long horn beetle, about 2cm
miombo woodland, 1000m
I spotted this in Namizimu forest reserve.
Thanks bayucca for all the links. They look very similar but I will go with A. hexastictus. I will let you know when I post the one from FB but it looks like the same species.
Cerambycidae, Cerambycinae, Anubis sp. and possibly Anubis hexastictus?
The upper one in the link above is exactly yours in my eyes! But maybe a wrong ID and it should be Anubis hexastictus instead of Anubis scalaris??

Note the square like upper markings and the space between and compare it with Anubis scalaris!

Can you please, post the other one from facebook I also thought of Anubis hexastictus?
