Leiopus nebulosus is a species of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae. It was described by Linnaeus in 1758. It contains two subspecies; the first, L. nebulosus nebulosus, is known from Europe and Russia, and the second, L. nebulosus caucasicus, is endemic to the mountains of the Caucasus (from which its species epithet is derived). The beetles inhabit deciduous trees, including those in the genera Fagus, Quercus, Carpinus, Juglans, Acer, Ulmus, Betula, Salix, and Prunus. They measure 5–10 millimetres in length, and can live for approximately 1–2 years.
