Subgenus Camegonia Lapouge, 1924

Camegonia Lapouge, 1924: 38. Type species: Calosoma carbonatum LeConte sensu Lapouge, 1924 (= Calosoma prominens LeConte, 1853) designated by Breuning (1928a: 95). Etymology. Unknown [feminine]. Note. Lapouge (1924: 38-39) associated two taxa with Camegonia , Calosoma carbonatum LeConte, 1862 and Calosoma lugubre LeConte, 1853. Breuning (1928a: 95) noted that Lapouge misidentified Calosoma prominens LeConte, 1853 for Camegonia carbonata and designated Calosoma prominens LeConte as type species of Camegonia Lapouge, 1924. That species was not originally included but since Breuning (1928a: 95) listed the species in synonymy with Camegonia carbonata sensu Lapouge, 1924, one of the two species originally included in Camegonia , he is deemed to have designated the latter species as type species (ICZN 1999: Article 69.2.2). Therefore Breuning (1928a: 95) designated as type species a species originally included as an expressly stated misidentification and the species so designated is the nominal species denoted by the name of the taxonomic species actually involved (ICZN 1999: Article 69.2.4), that is Calosoma prominens LeConte, 1853.

Diversity.

Three North American species, all of them extending into Mexico.
