Amblygnathus iripennis (Say, 1823)

Harpalus iripennis Say, 1823a: 30. Type locality: "Ent[er]prise [Volusia County], Fl[orid]a" (neotype label). Neotype (♂), designated by Lindroth and Freitag (1969: 353), in MCZ [# 32989].

Selenophorus varicolor LeConte, 1847: 392. Type locality: "Pennsylvania et Georgia" (original citation). Lectotype (♀), designated by Ball and Maddison (1987: 206), in MCZ [# 5920]. Synonymy established by LeConte (1863b: 13), confirmed by Ball and Maddison (1987: 206).

Distribution.

This species is found along and near the Atlantic Coastal Plain from New Jersey to the Florida Keys [see Ball and Maddison 1987: Fig. 28] and along the Gulf of Mexico in southwestern Alabama ( Löding 1945: 25; Robert L. Davidson pers. comm. 2012). The record from “Pennsylvania” (LeConte 1847: 392), “Illinois,” and “Texas” (Horn 1880e: 182) are probably in error.
