Chlaenius solitarius Say, 1823

Chlaenius solitarius Say, 1823a: 65. Type locality: "Opposite Dubuque [Dubuque County], Iowa" (neotype label). Neotype (♂), designated by Lindroth and Freitag (1969: 351), in MCZ [# 32991]. Note. "on the Missouri" was the area originally cited by Say (1823a: 66).

Chlaenius chlorophanus Dejean, 1831: 662. Type locality: «Amérique septentrionale" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♂) in MHNP (Lindroth 1955b: 25). Synonymy established by LeConte (1867a: 347), confirmed by Lindroth (1955b: 25).

Distribution.

This species inhabits the Great Plains and the Great Central Plains from southern Alberta to southwestern Pennsylvania (Allegheny and Westmoreland Counties, Robert L. Davidson pers. comm. 2008), south to northern Mississippi (Drew A. Hildebrandt pers. comm. 2007), east-central Louisiana (West Feliciana Parish, Igor M. Sokolov pers. comm. 2009), central Texas, and central New Mexico (Bell 1960: 111). The records from southwestern Ohio (Dury 1906: 257) and “Utah” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 206) need confirmation. The record from “Georgia” (J.E. LeConte 1849: 26) is probably in error; that from Beaver Islands in Michigan (Hatch 1925: 553) was based on misidentified specimens of Chlaenius cordicollis (Dunn 1985a: 10). The specimen labeled from northeastern Florida (see Bell 1960: 111) is probably mislabeled (Robert L. Davidson pers. comm. 1992). Old specimens simply labeled from Michigan and Minnesota are known (Bell 1960: 111).
