Chrysobothris smaragdula Fall, 1907 View in CoL

A male and a female reared from the ornamental Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi (Anacardiaceae) , Arizona, Yavapai [Co.], Wickenburg, 37650 Camino Blanco, 12S 335427 3764248 UTM, 2330′, 4-VI–2-VII-2016, P. Kaufman #13062, POKC (new larval host). The use of this exotic host indicates to me a wide host range for this rarely collected beetle, for which no other larval host has been reported.
