Distribution.

This species ranges from southern Minnesota (Gandhi et al. 2005: 922) to the Pacific Coast in southern California, south to the state of Oaxaca in Mexico (Gidaspow 1959: 269). The records from Missouri (probably based on the type locality of Calosoma triste ) and “Arkansas” (Burgess and Collins 1917: 87), possibly based on a stray, need confirmation.
