Late in the summer of 1926, several adults of the beetle (Microrhopala vittata Fabr.) were found in the blistered portions of leaves of the compass plant (Silphium laciniatum L.). The insect is black with head and thorax red and with red stripes on the second costa and at the outer margin of each elytron. It is subdepressed and about 6 mm. long.
