Found this one today in central Berks, in mixed habitat. Around 20mm long. Any ideas on ID?

It looks like Agapanthia villosoviridescens but I've not seen one with patches on the elytra like that before. I can't think of anything else it might be.

Now I've had a chance to double check, Saperda populnea is actually a better fit. |:$|
