Can anyone ID this beetle to species? I'm pretty sure it's an Oedemera sp. but not one I've come across before.

Thanks Ben. Good spot. Yes - a longhorn - I should have realised that at once with those antennae, but the swollen legs threw me. Stenopterus looks right having seen some pics now, bit too many species out there to be sure which one, unless a cerambycid expert knows better.

OK thanks, yes this looks just right. I didn't notice the black and white striped abdomen of this species, but only got these dorsal views so may have missed that.
