Long-horn Beetle ID? (Bogogno, 28010 Province of Novara, Italy) (3 Viewers)

Hi All

Saw this small beetle (12mm-ish) and took some pictures. I can't find it as a UK beetle.

It appears to be a long-horn beetle but.....?

Perhaps someone could ID for me?

Yours, Gareth

Hi, Gareth. It might be a Velvet Longhorned beetle (Trichoferus Campestris)??

That looked pretty good until I checked distribution. Not found in Italy.

But thanks for trying to help Harrybongo

I found one case in transition. In Naples port, during a check on vegetable produce. But it does look like it but I can find nothing online for beetles in Italy. Need someone with a bit of local knowledge I think.

Hi. Yeah, I think your right! 👍. It does look like one, though? It was the only one I could find online, that was similar to your pic.......could be wrong, though. Hopefully, you'll get some positive info, and an i.d soon. 👍🙂
