It is not irrorator but ruficonis, wich differs in the brownish pubescence, the smaller size and the completely different genitalia.
Both are present in Mbingam; thus Teocchi's opinion to consider them as subspecies is wrong.
Dillon & Dillon (1961) had already separated these species, but Teocchi (and consequently Titabase  ) completely overlooked this revision, which is available here since 2011!
I have already published two articles citing the correct taxonomy, but Titabase persists in his mistake.
Biolib quotes the correct taxonomy of this subgenus.
I show here both species, all from Mbingam:
Monochamus ruficornis (Hintz, 1913)
Monochamus irrorator (Chevrolat, 1855) |

Monochamus (Ethiopiochamus) irrorator (Chevrolat, 1855) pour son nom complet. |

Bonjour
Vraisemblablement M irrorator Chevrolat. |
