Amara pennsylvanica Hayward, 1908

Curtonotus fulvipes Putzeys, 1866b: 235 [secondary homonym of Amara fulvipes (Audinet-Serville, 1821)]. Type locality: «Missouri» (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♂) in MHNP (collection Chaudoir).

Amara pennsylvanica Hayward, 1908: 34. Replacement name for Amara fulvipes (Putzeys, 1866). Note. Because Hayward’s name was expressly proposed as a replacement name, the syntypes of Amara pennsylvanica in MCZ [# 25668] have no status (see ICZN 1999: Article 72.7).

Distribution.

This species ranges from Nova Scotia (Lindroth 1968: 678) to “Wyoming” (Hayward 1908: 34), south to northeastern Colorado (Sedgwick County, Ken Karns pers. comm. 2009), northeastern Texas (Dallas County, MCZ), southwestern Alabama (Mobile County, USNM), and northwestern South Carolina (Ciegler 2000: 75). An old specimen simply labeled from "New Mexico" (MCZ) is known. The record from western Montana (Hatch 1933a: 8) needs confirmation.
