The monoblast is the first stage of monocyte-macrophage maturation. The developmental stages of the monoblast are:
CFU-GM (pluripotential hemopoietic stem cell or hemocytoblast) -> monoblast -> promonocyte -> monocyte-> macrophage.
Monoblasts are normally found in bone marrow and do not appear in the normal peripheral blood. They mature into monocytes which, in turn, develop into macrophages.
A promonocyte (or premonocyte) is a cell arising from a monoblast and developing into a monocyte.
