Elaphropus dolosus (LeConte, 1848)

Tachys dolosus LeConte, 1848: 470. Type locality: "Rocky Mountains" (original citation). Lectotype (♀), designated by Erwin (1974a: 133), in MCZ [# 5584].

Tachys audax LeConte, 1852a: 193. Type locality: "ad Colorado et Gilae ripas" (original citation), restricted to "Colorado River, Arizona" by Erwin (1974a: 134). Lectotype (♀), designated by Erwin (1974a: 134), in MCZ [# 5585]. Synonymy established by Erwin (1974a: 134). Note. This form has been considered a valid species by Hayward (1900: 206) and Casey (1918: 177).

Tachyura apacheana Casey, 1918: 184. Type locality: "Riverside [Pinal County], Arizona" (original citation). Lectotype (♂), designated by Erwin (1974a: 134), in USNM [# 46922]. Synonymy established by Erwin (1974a: 134).

Distribution.

This species ranges from southern New Hampshire (Hillsborough County, CMNH) to south-central South Dakota (Kirk and Balsbaugh 1975: 21), including southern Ontario (Lindroth 1966: 419), south to southern Texas (Casey 1918: 177, as Tachyura audax ; Hayward 1900: 205), southwestern Alabama (Baldwin County, CMNH), and the District of Columbia ( Beutenmüller 1897: 40), west along southern United States to southern California (Fall 1901a: 44, as Tachys audax ) and the Baja California Peninsula (Horn 1894: 308, as Tachys audax ). The records from “Alberta,” “Idaho,” “Montana,” “Wyoming” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 151) and northern California (Notman 1929b: 223) are probably in error.
