I agree. But you are mounting your Cerambycidae incorrectly. The preferred way is to keep the antennae along side the body/ and or wrapped around the base of the elytra if they are 2 or 3 times longer than the body itself, and the legs as close to the body as possible. Having the antennae in front of the head is inviting damage to them, and the legs can catch on other legs and break off tarsi or the tibia. I have 20 cases of Cerambycidae and all of mine are mounted that way because that is how we do it.
