# 24 - Leptura rubra (?)

Definitely a long-horn beetle and I think it is Leptura rubra.
(Please let me know if you recognise it as something else.)
As we burn wood we do see these beetles from time to time.

He's not known in NZ, but looks great there on the snow

You disturbed his food chain...good for you

I've never seen one before now. Very long antennae and fuzzy body are unusual.

An intricate design here.

Rubery bug

This is a very good, detailed view of him. The antennae are really interesting. V

What a fascinating little bugger! Love the segmented legs and antennae! :)
