The colour of this insect is a pale yellowish green, which pervades also 

 the wings ; head yellowish, with the eyes and ocelli black, the crown of the 

 head is often marked with brown ; the antennae are yellowish, inclining to 

 brown towards the tips ; the prothorax is of the same colour, rather dusky 

 towards the sides, the meso- and metaihorax are dusky, as also is the upper 

 side of the abdomen : the nervures of the fore wings are more or less brown. 



This insect is common on the continent of Europe and in 

 England. It is extremely variable, and Mr. Stephens has, 

 from this circumstance, been induced to divide the species as 

 above. In nearly all cabinets of British Insects.
