Bembidion consessor Casey, 1918: 52. Type locality: "Bluff Point, Lake Champlain, New York" (original citation). Lectotype (♀), designated by Lindroth (1975: 118), in USNM [# 36885]. Synonymy established by Lindroth (1963b: 302).

Distribution.

This species ranges from Newfoundland (Lindroth 1955a: 56) to the foothills of the Rockies in Alberta and northeastern British Columbia (Lindroth 1963b: 302), south to southeastern Wyoming (Hayward 1897: 60, as Bembidion concolor ), central Minnesota (Crow Wing and Sherburne Counties, CNC), Vermont (Addison County, CNC), and Maine (Aroostook County, CNC). The record from southern South Dakota (Kirk and Balsbaugh 1975: 17) needs confirmation; those from “Idaho,” “Iowa,” and “Pennsylvania” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 134) are probably in error. Fossil remnants from a Plio-Pleistocene sequence have been unearthed in northwestern Greenland ( Böcher 1995: 25).
