Harpalus brunneus Gyllenhal, 1810: 143. Type locality: Sweden (inferred from title of the book), restricted to «Göteborg» by Lindroth (1968: 704). Lectotype (♂), designated by Lindroth (1968: 704), in UZIU.

Harpalus sahlbergi Zetterstedt, 1837: 36. Unnecessary replacement name for Harpalus lapponicus Sahlberg, 1827.

Celia amplicollis Mannerheim, 1853: 139. Type locality: "ad rivulum fl[umen] Tschunuktnu peninsulae Kenai [Alaska]" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] location unknown (possibly in collection Chaudoir, MHNP, fide Lindroth 1968: 704). Synonymy established by Putzeys (1866b: 197), confirmed by Lindroth (1968: 704). Note.

Distribution.

This Holarctic species is found from northern Manitoba (CNC) to the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska (Lindroth 1968: 706), and in the Palaearctic Region from the Far East to Norway, south to Spain, Italy, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia (Hieke 2003a: 556). The records from British Columbia (Hamilton 1894a: 11; Jarrett and Scudder 2001: 379) need confirmation; those from “Washington,” “Colorado” (Hamilton 1894a: 11; Wickham 1902: 238), and Idaho (Horning and Barr 1970: 24, as Amara amplicollis ) are in error.
