Mecosarthron domingoensis is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae, originally placed in the genus Xixuthrus, which is otherwise restricted to the Old World, but reassigned to Mecosarthron in 1985.[1] The reassignment has itself been challenged, with evidence both for and against the placement of this species in Xixuthrus.[2]
