Distribution.

This subspecies, also known as the "Western Tiger Beetle", ranges from Vancouver Island to western Alberta, south to central Utah and southern California along the Mexican border [see Freitag 1965: Fig. 18]; also recorded from Baja California (Murray 1979: 50) and northern Sonora (Cazier 1954: 242). The records from New Mexico (Fall and Cockerell 1907: 155), “Arizona,” and "New Mexico" (Boyd 1982: 6) probably refer to the guttifera form.
