Thanks, @thaptor for the ID and explanations :)
I somehow are not really convinced this, and praetorius, are two species. Here: http://www.cerambycoidea.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18116 a specialist said, difference is in the amount of black colour on pronotum. To me it seems, your specimen above is an intergrade between 2) and 3). 1) praetorius all orange: http://plant.cdfa.ca.gov/byciddb/wdetails.asp?id=32400&w=o 2) small spots: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/366053527 3) banded: http://plant.cdfa.ca.gov/byciddb/wdetails.asp?id=32404&w=o
