FEMALE (Figs 28, 42). Length about 2.8-4.7 mm. Color. Head (Fig. 1) with variably large green spot below anterior ocellus and variably extensively and conspicuously green along inner orbit except parascrobal region always with dark band at about dorsal limit of interantennal region, usually partly green within scrobal depression and on interantennal region under different angles of light, and at least obscurely green (sometimes greenish with coppery luster under some angles of light) on lower face, but otherwise dark from level of posterior margin of eyes to about dorsal level of interantennal region, and parascrobal region usually dark along scrobal depression; posterior surface of head dark to sometimes greenish-blue under different angles of light except more distinctly bluish-purple in variably complete ∩-shaped band along outer orbit and occiput. Maxillary and labial palpi dark. Antenna dark except scape variably extensively yellow basally (usually with about basal quarter to third yellow), and dark part of scape and pedicel sometimes with green luster under some angles of light. Tegula yellow. Mesoscutum (Fig. 28) variably extensively greenish-blue to bluish-purple laterally, but parapsidal line, anteroadmedian line or region between anteroadmedian line and notaulus, and dorsomedially anterior to base of scutellum coppery or greenish with coppery luster; scutellar-axillar complex mostly similar in color to mesoscutum medially except frenal area bluish-purple. Acropleuron (Fig. 52) variably bluish-green except microsculptured region or diffuse region extending obliquely from microsculptured region toward tegula coppery. Legs (Fig. 42) with

and tibia of front leg variably extensively dark, but trochanter and trochantellus at least distinctly lighter in color and knee, apex of tibia, and tarsus yellow; middle leg often entirely yellow beyond coxa but sometimes with similar color pattern as front leg except femur and tibia much lighter brownish-yellow; hind leg usually yellow beyond coxa though sometimes up to about basal two-thirds of femur brownish or dark with very slight metallic luster. Fore wing hyaline; setae uniformly brown. Gaster (Fig. 42) mostly brown dorsally but syntergum and gaster laterally more bluish-green, similar to mesosoma laterally.

from several countries in Western Europe; I saw females from Croatia (CNC), England (BMNH), France (CNC Photo 2009-33, USNM) and Sweden (BMNH). The species has only been rarely collected in North America in the lower Fraser Valley in British Columbia and Washington and Oregon (Map 1). This restricted distribution and its host biology strongly indicates

from Europe in the BMNH. Some females seen from Europe are up to about 7.5 mm, their much larger size suggesting the possibility of different, larger hosts. The larger females have all the legs entirely yellow beyond the coxae, can have up to about the basal half of the scape yellow, typically have a more distinct coppery region on the mesoscutum extending posteriorly from each parapsidal line (Fig. 12), and the syntergum is somewhat more elongate-slender, up to about twice as long as the transcercal width, as indicated by
