Cerambycidae, Cerambycinae (!), Zorion sp. and possibly Zorion guttigerum. However, there are other species from this endemic genus, so you also might add only Zorion sp. in the scientific field and mentioned Zorion gutigerum as possibly candidate. Usually Lepturinae from Cerambycidae are called Flower Longhorn Beetle, but do not ask me why this one from Cerambycinae are called Flower Longhorn Beetle as common name. http://www.whatsthatbug.com/2011/01/25/mating-longhorn-beetles-in-new-zealand/ http://www.whatsthatbug.com/2015/10/26/antlike-longhorn-beetle-from-new-zealand/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/mollivan_jon/95552150 http://www.whatsthatbug.com/2011/01/25/mating-longhorn-beetles-in-new-zealand/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/87453322@N00/11136829674 https://www.flickr.com/photos/16921893@N00/15630490107 https://www.flickr.com/photos/16921893@N00/16205354180 http://grahamenz.com/Fauna/Land/Insects/Beetles/Zorion%20guttigerum/ http://www.mapress.com/zootaxa/2005f/z01066p042f.pdf
