Bembidion neocoerulescens Bousquet, 1993

Bembidium coerulescens Van Dyke, 1926a: 65 [primary homonym of Bembidion andreae coerulescens Dalla Torre, 1877]. Type locality: "Niles Cañon, Alameda County, California" (original citation). Holotype (♂) in CAS [# 1818]. Note. Even if it is obvious that infrasubspecific rank was meant when Dalla Torre (1877: 56) proposed his Bembidion andreae coerulescens (see Lindroth 1963b: 271, footnote), the fact that Csiki (1928: 163) and Van Dyke (1949b: 56) treated Dalla Torre’s name as a senior homonym makes the name subspecific from the date of its establishment (ICZN 1999: Article 45.6.4.1).
