Extract

In 1866, Dr. J. L. LeConte described Podabrus fayi and Podabrus protensus. He compared P. fayi and Podabrus tomentosus (Say) noting the differences but failing to indicate any similarity to P. protensus. P. fayi was cited as having black elytra whereas P. protensus was described as having a long tapering neck and with the elytra blackish with the basal fifth and the outer margin as far as the middle reddish yellow, the two colors shading imperceptibly together.
