Oreodera glauca is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae, found in the Neotropics. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. Larvae cut into the sapwood of their host plants prior to pupation. Adults rest with their antennae pressed flat against their body so that the abdomen looks like the beetle's head and vice versa.
