I believe both sexes here, despite differences in the elytral apex and the pronotum.... larger specimen is about 28mm

These are either Phoracanthini or a very large Callidiopini.

In Vives et al 2011, this looks a little bit like Coptopterus spinosus (Fauvel, 1906). Xaurus, let me know when you check your collection.

Sorry, but Strongylurus and Coptopterus are the same genus and Strongylurus is the valid genus, though Vives et al. (2011) inverted this synonymy (see here).
