Poecilus laetulus (LeConte, 1863)
Pterostichus laetulus LeConte, 1863c: 10. Type locality: "San Jose [Santa Clara County, California]" (original citation for Poecilus occidentalis Dejean sensu LeConte, 1853). Lectotype (♂), designated by Bousquet (1999: 62), in MCZ [# 5635]. Note. This name was proposed for Pterostichus occidentalis (Dejean, 1828) sensu LeConte (1853a: 253). By an unfortunate error, LeConte (1863c: 10) used the specific name californicus instead of occidentalis.
Distribution.
This species ranges from southeastern Washington (Hatch 1953: 115) to southern California (Fall 1901a: 44; Moore 1937: 9) and southern Arizona (Wickham 1898: 300). The records from New Mexico (Wickham 1896a: 157; Fall and Cockerell 1907: 158) and northeastern Kansas (Popenoe 1878: 78) are probably based on misidentified specimens.
