Largus californicus, also known as the California bordered plant bug, is a species of bordered plant bug in the family Largidae. It is found in western North America, as well as parts of Central America. [1] [2] [3] They measure around 2.5 cm (0.98 in) in length. Adults have a black exoskeleton with orange edges on the thorax and abdomen.

Two pairs of large wings, kept flat against the body when at rest, are longer than the body.
