Macrotylus herrichi Reuter, of Central Europe. But it differs 

 in having a more elongated head, with the pronotal callosities 

 round, much elevated, and highly polished, while the head and 

 thorax are proportionally longer, and the transverse yellow 

 spots are absent from the pronotum.

Kindly sent to me by Mr. Coquillett, who captured the 

 specimens near Los Angeles, California. Thus far only a few 

 females have been sent to me for identification and study. It 

 is of a broader form than either of the foregoing species, and is 

 well characterized by its clear green color spread over with the 

 white pubescence.
