Desmocerus californicus dimorphus (Valley Elderberry Longhorn Beetle) |
Desmocerus auripennis (Elder Borer, Elderberry Longhorn Beetle) | This is not a Valley elderberry longhorn beetle (D. californicus californicus), which occurs only in the Central Valley of California. This appears to be one of the subspecies of Desmocerus auripennis, possibly D.a. lacustris. This fits better with the coloration of this beetle and the location. |
