Identification
Body size: 3-4 mm. This species is very similar to other uniformly colored species of this genus and can easily be confused. It can be identified by its small size and the lack of punctation on the center of the thoracic shield. In addition, a safe indication of the species is its host plant, the common broom Cytisus (formerly Sarothamnus) scoparius and related broom species.
