Chrysobothris purpureovittata purpureovittata Horn, 1886

Westcott and Nelson (2000) provided the first records of this subspecies from New Mexico and Mexico (Chihuahua and Nuevo León); however, strangely, Nelson et al. (2008) did not include any of those localities; and the world catalog ( Bellamy 2008) omits Chihuahua. This species was collected on Condalia sp. (Rhamnaceae) in Texas, McMullen Co., Choke Canyon State Park, 18-IV-1988, OSAC; on Quercus virginiana Mill., San Patricio Co., Welder Wildlife Refuge , 7 mi N Sinton, 18/ 19-IV-1989, UCDC; sweeping Quercus havardii Rydb., Ward Co., Monahans St. Park , 6 mi NE Monahans, 3000′, 22-VI-1982, RLWE.
