Goes pulcher, known generally as the living-hickory borer, is a species of flat-faced longhorn in the beetle family Cerambycidae. The common name "living-hickory borer" is sometimes confused with that of Megacyllene caryae, which is called "hickory borer".[1][2][3][4]

Goes pulcher is a relatively uncommon beetle found in eastern North America. Adults may range from 18mm to 27mm in length.[2]

This species was first described by Haldeman in 1847, originally under the genus Monohammus.[1]
