Sugar Maple Borer - Glycobius speciosus

Canaan Valley - Davis, West Virginia

A never seen before bug on our back deck railing in Canaan Valley, West Virginia.
Black with yellow body markings and six yellow legs - black antenna - lower abdomen has false eyes and face. Maybe a longhorned beetle or borer - about 1.25 inches long.
See 'previous' image for a look at his 'false' eyes.

Thank you Carl Carbone for the correct ID !
