Neoclytus anama

Neoclytus anama is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae (longhorn beetles). It was described by the entomologists Galileo and Martins in 2007. The species belongs to the genus Neoclytus, which is placed within the subfamily Cerambycinae and tribe Clytini.

As a member of the genus Neoclytus, this species shares characteristics common to the group, including a body length typically ranging from 5 to 15 mm, antennae that are generally shorter than or equal to the body length, and distinctive markings on the elytra (wing covers) that are common among clytine beetles. The specific epithet "anama" may be a toponym referencing a geographic locality or could derive from a personal name, though the original publication by Galileo and Martins (2007) would provide the definitive etymology.

The species is recorded in taxonomic databases including the Catalogue of Life, GBIF, and Wikidata, and is listed in Larry G. Bezark's A Photographic Catalog of the Cerambycidae of the World.
