Eleodes (Melaneleodes) parowanus Blaisdell, 1925
This distinctive species is known only from sandy areas of extreme southern Utah. This habitat is contiguous to and reaches beyond the Arizona state border. Though there are no Arizona records known to us, the under-collected Arizona Strip could well contain E. parowanus populations. Eleodes parowanus can be recognized by the elytron being granulately tuberculate with three costae, which, along with the elytral suture, are elevated and rounded. The profemora are unarmed.
