Species, i, 500 ; Cat., 62,* 13. 



Black ; head coarsely punctured, the vertex not so strongly as the 

 front, mandibles yellow at base, the apex piceous, a broad yellow band 

 on each side of vertex ; antennae with the basal two joints black, the 

 rest black above, pale brown on lower side, third joint nearly as long as 

 the following three. Tegulse, the edge of pronotum, scutellum, post- 

 scutellum and legs, straw-yellow, base of coxse black. Abdomen black, 

 the middle two segments fulvous in centre. The edges of the segments 

 slightly, and the ventral segments bordered with black. Wings hyaline, 

 stigma fuscous, paler in the centre. 



The <$ has the scutellum black. 



Length 4^ lines. 



This is perhaps only a variety of P. hortorum ; the 

 vertex, however, is less strongly punctured ; there are 

 two conspicuous white marks on vertex, the stigma is 

 lighter in tint, especially in the middle, and the centre 

 only of the abdomen is fulvous, not the two middle 

 segments as in hortorum. The $ , too, differs from the 

 $ of hortorum in having the scutellum black. 



Rare. Braemar. 



Continental distribution : Sweden, Germany, France.
