Pterostichus blanchardi G.H. Horn, 1891: 33. Type locality: "Highland[s] [Macon County], North Carolina" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♂) in MCZ [# 34426]. Etymology. The specific name honors Frederick Blanchard [1843-1912] who worked in the banking business at Lowell, Massachusetts. Blanchard was an ardent beetle collector, essentially New England species, and worked regularly with LeConte’s collection. He bequeathed his collection to the Museum of Comparative Zoology.
