Lamyctes pius Chamberlin 1911a: 33 ; Mercurio 2010: 41 (complete references)

Originally described as a subspecies of L. tivius ; North Carolina, Georgia, New Jersey, New York, Wisconsin, Virginia and Pennsylvania. Very similar to L. tivius , but supposed by Chamberlin (1911) to be more reddish or often darker in coloration, and larger at 7.5–9.5 mm. Antennae with 28 or 29 articles, coxosternal teeth 3+3, coxal pores 2, 3, 3, 3 ( Chamberlin 1912). Specimens I have examined were uniformly yellow or pale orange, the color perhaps having faded after long preservation; many were more than a century old. Type specimens are in the MCZ.
