Lebia pectita Horn, 1885

Lebia pectita G.H. Horn, 1885a: 133. Type locality: "Pennsylvania to Texas" (original citation for Lebia vittata Fabricius sensu Horn, 1872), herein restricted to Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida (see Madge 1967: 195). Syntype(s) in MCZ [# 34507]. Note. This name was proposed for Lebia vittata (Fabricius, 1777) sensu Horn (1872a: 140). Horn’s collection in MCZ contains three specimens under this name: two are labeled “N.M.” (one of which has a type label) and the other one “Fla.”

Distribution.

This species is found from New Hampshire to northeastern Kansas (Knaus 1903: 188), south to eastern Texas and northern Florida [see Madge 1967: Fig. 121]. The state record of "New Mexico" (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 277), based on two specimens in Horn collection (MCZ) labeled “N.M.,” needs confirmation.
