Apologies for the photos - windy day, and then I think I frightened it (!) I'm guessing it's under 'other' category? Spectacular antennae!

Hii Lisa, This is a longhorn beetle but the images aren't very clear. Regards

Thank you. I'll be so annoyed with myself if this can't be identified!

The fancy antennae identify this individual as a male. There is another much smaller longhorn beetle, probably a Syllitus sp., in the first image directly underneath the main subject.

Thank you! I noticed the other beetle once I looked at the photos. I was very impressed with the antennae!
