Macrochenus isabellinus
I was drawn to its very long thorax, unlike other longhorn beetles.
Thanks bayucca for the research. This one seems to go more with M isabellinus. Yes it's quite difficult, one could even go with M guerini, all things considered but the latter one has longer horns; moreover, M isabellinus was reported from nearby area of Darjeeling (Darjeeling Tea!), West Bengal.
Cerambycidae, Lamiinae, Monochamini, Macrochenus sp., in my eyes either Macrochenus guerini or Macrochenus isabellinus, but it could be that Guerini and Isabellinus are anyway the same or Isabellinus is a subspecies of Guerini. Please, verify!
