Tibicen chisosensis Davis, 1934 View in CoL new record.

The AMNH has a specimen from Chihuahua, Matachic, 7– VII–1947.

This record represents an approximately 475 km range extension to the west for the species which has previously been reported only from the Chisos Mountains of Texas ( Davis 1934, Phillips & Sanborn 2007). Matachic appears to be within the Sierra Madre Occidental of the Madrean floristic region ( Peet 1988). There should be suitable habitat in the area if the specimen was collected in the mountains on either side of the valley containing Matachic.

The species has been associated with Mexican pinyon pine ( Pinus cembroides Newberry ) ( Phillips & Sanborn 2007) which is present in the Madrean floristic province ( Peet 1988).
