Cicindela hirticollis abrupta Casey, 1913
Cicindela gravida abrupta Casey, 1913: 31. Type locality: "Sacramento [Sacramento County], California" (original citation). Two syntypes in USNM [# 45992].
Distribution.
This subspecies, also known as the "Sacramento Valley Hairy-necked Tiger Beetle", is endemic to a small area within the Sacramento Valley of California (Graves et al. 1988: 660). An extensive survey in 2001-2004 within the known distributional range of the subspecies yield no specimens and Knisley and Fenster (2006) concluded that the subspecies has been extirpated in the late 1980s to early 1990s possibly from the construction of the Oroville Dam on the Feather River in the 1960s (see also Fenster and Knisley 2006).
