Orthotylus marginalis is a species of stinkbugs from Miridae family that can be found throughout Europe (except for Liechtenstein and various European islands).
Adults are 6 millimetres (0.24 in) long, and are green coloured. Their upper surface is covered with dense pale hairs, with brownish antennas.
The species members feed on alder, apple trees, currant, sloe, sallow, and willows. Adults feed on Aphididae, Carabidae, and Psyllidae. In some cases, they also feed on plants of pear trees, causing the pears to have stoney pits, among other damages.
