Cyclotrachelus torvus (LeConte, 1863)

Evarthrus torvus LeConte, 1863c: 9. Type locality: «Kansas» (original citation). Syntype(s) location unknown. Note. The specimen in MCZ [# 5657] labeled “Col[orado]” and selected lectotype by Freitag (1969: 160) is not a syntype.

Feronia acuminata Chaudoir, 1868b: 333. Type locality: «Texas» (original citation). Lectotype (♂), designated by Freitag (1969: 160), in MHNP. Synonymy established by Freitag (1969: 160).

Eumolops prominens Casey, 1918: 353. Type locality: «Florida» (original citation), which is probably incorrect (Freitag 1969: 161). Lectotype [as holotype] (♀), designated by Freitag (1969: 161), in USNM [# 47128]. Synonymy established by Freitag (1969: 161).

Eumolops sexualis Casey, 1918: 354. Type locality: "Las Vegas [San Miguel County], New Mexico" (original citation). Lectotype [as holotype] (♂), designated by Freitag (1969: 161), in USNM [# 47124]. Synonymy established by Freitag (1969: 161).

Distribution.

This species inhabits the Great Plains from southwestern Minnesota (Gandhi et al. 2005: 926) to western South Dakota, south to southern New Mexico and southern Arkansas [see Freitag 1969: Fig. 135]. The record from “Arizona” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 189) is probably in error; one specimen labeled from Hidalgo County in southeastern Texas is probably mislabeled (Freitag 1969: 163).
