Notiophilus biguttatus (Fabricius, 1779)

Elaphrus biguttatus Fabricius, 1779: 231. Type locality: "Bye [Norway]" (original citation) which according to Lindroth (1961a: 100) is located in Guldal (= Gauldal), a valley of the Gaula River, south of Trondheim. Syntype(s) destroyed (Lindroth 1961a: 100).

Distribution.

This Palaearctic species is adventive in North America where it is known from Newfoundland and Saint Pierre and Miquelon (Lindroth 1955a: 37) to the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec (LeSage 1996: 23), south to Connecticut (Krinsky and Oliver 2004: 396) and "Rhode Island" (Sikes 2003: 7), and from southwestern British Columbia (Lindroth 1961a: 101). The first inventoried specimen found on the east side of this continent was caught in Newfoundland in 1923 (Brown 1950b: 197) and on the west coast in Vancouver in 1957 (Lindroth 1961a: 101). Dejean’s (1831: 589) record of this species from «Amérique septentrionale" almost certainly refers to Notiophilus novemstriatus LeConte.
