Nebria gebleri gebleri Dejean, 1831

Nebria gebleri Dejean, 1831: 573. Type locality: «détroit de Norfolk [= Sitka Sound, Baranof Island, Alaska], sur la côte nord-ouest de l’Amérique septentrionale" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♀) in MHNP (Ledoux and Roux 1992: 37). Etymology. The specific name honors Frédéric Auguste Gebler [1782-1850], physician and amateur coleopterist. Born in Germany, Gebler settled in Barnaul in Siberia at the age of 27. As physician of the vast district of Kolywano-Woskresensk, he had the opportunity to collect in several places in Siberia. After his death, Gebler’s collection was sold to Count Georges de Mniszech [1824-1881] for 1,057 silver roubles. Mniszech’s collection was bought by René Oberthür in 1885.

Nebria melanaria Hatch, 1949b: 115. Type locality: "Going-to-the-Sun Chalet, Glacier National Park [Flathead County], Montana" (original citation). Holotype (♂) in USNM. Synonymy established by Lindroth (1961a: 83).

Distribution.

This subspecies occurs along the Cordilleras from the Alexander Archipelago to southernmost Yukon Territory (Lindroth 1961a: 84), south to southwestern Montana, south-central Idaho, and northeastern Oregon [see Kavanaugh 1979a: Fig. 64]. The record from northern Colorado (Armin 1963: 89) is probably in error.
