Lycid-mimicking Longicorn Beetle

? sp., body length 20mm
The beetle about to fly away. We can see its hind wings which are normally folded under the forewings cover. Beetles only use their hind wings for flying. The harden forewings are used as the protection to their hind wings and abdomen. When fly, the forewings are just open and have no or very minor aero-dynamic effect.

This small Longicorn is only 10mm body length. It was sitting on the top of a dry plant, its antenna was up, seems waiting for something. We saw this longicorn once in Melaleuca, Karawatha Forest.
