A type of long horn beetle.

Broad face type Longhorn Beetle. In asian forests we find them in vast variety. Many of them are not yet classified.

Hi Dan, I think I have a suggestion for this beetle. I´m preparing a series of pictures of one very similiar as yours, cuting a branch of a tree. It´s a kind of woodcutter beetle. This week I will upload all the pics.
