Schizogenius amphibius (Haldeman, 1843)

Clivina amphibia Haldeman, 1843b: 299. Type locality: southeastern Pennsylvania (Haldeman 1843a: 295). Lectotype, designated by Whitehead (1972: 236), in MCZ (collection LeConte).

Clivina frontalis LeConte, 1846b: 215. Type locality: "Westchester Co[unty], N[ew] Y[ork]" (original citation). Lectotype (♂), designated by Whitehead (1972: 236), in MCZ [# 5482]. Synonymy established by Melsheimer (1853: 8), confirmed by Whitehead (1972: 236).

Distribution.

This species ranges from Maine, southern Quebec, and Michigan south to Tennessee and North Carolina [see Whitehead 1972: Fig. 190]; also seen from eastern Oklahoma (Le Flore County, FFPC). The records from eastern Iowa (Wickham 1911b: 6) and Missouri (Summers 1873: 133) need confirmation; that from southwestern Colorado (Wickham 1902: 232) must be in error.
