 In similar places with the preceding, and equally common. 

 This species, as well as the next, is often confounded with L. 

 rufipenne, apparently a very rare British insect. It is nearly 

 similar in colour to L. elongatum, but is a much smaller, and 

 more linear insect (about the size of L. multipunctum) ; the head 

 is more deeply punctate, and its sides, as well as those of the thorax, 

 are straighter; the thorax, also, is more oblong, and the elytra 

 are longer, than in that species. From L. fidvipenne it is much 

 more distinct.
