This is the most remarkable little Long-Horn I ever saw. It's thorax and elytra are so like pieces of moss and lichen that it is impossible to see it unless it moves. Just amazing camouflage. I haven't been able to find one in print that is similar. It is about 8 mm long. Family Cerambycidae.
Hi Lauren,
when I read your words I thought: "may science have overlooked it?"
We had such a case recently on NaturaLista:

Yours, however, turned out to be a known species :-)
