Treatment

Brachystylus longicollis Motschulsky, 1859a: 147 [secondary homonym of Pterostichus longicollis (Duftschmid, 1812)]. Type locality: "Cap de l’Amiral Drak[e] [= Drakes Head, Marin County, California]" (original citation). Syntype(s) location unknown (possibly in ZMMU though not listed in Keleinikova 1976).

Pterostichus gracilior LeConte, 1873a: 304. Replacement name for Pterostichus longicollis (Motschulsky, 1859).

Distribution.

This species seems to be confined to the mountains of southern California (Fall 1901a: 44). The records from “Oregon,” “Nevada,” and “Nebraska” (Schaupp 1882c: 41) are probably in error.
