Bembidion mutatum Gemminger and Harold, 1868

Ochthedromus axillaris LeConte, 1850: 211 [secondary homonym of Bembidion axillare (Motschulsky, 1844)]. Type locality: "Sault [= Sault Sainte Marie; according to Lindroth (1963b: 386) probably the locality in Ontario]" (original citation). Two syntypes in MCZ [# 5550]. Note. Lindroth (1963b: 386) pointed out that the syntype, labeled as type, in MCZ has the forebody of this species glued to the hindbody of Bembidion quadrimaculatum (Linnaeus). The description of Bembidion axillare points to the forebody as being part of the original specimen.

Bembicidium mutatum Gemminger and Harold, 1868a: 416. Replacement name for Bembicidiun axillare (LeConte, 1850).

Bembidion vegetum Casey, 1918: 151. Type locality: "Boulder Co[unty], Colorado" (original citation). Lectotype (♀), designated by Lindroth (1975: 121), in USNM [# 37064]. Synonymy established by Lindroth (1963b: 386).

Distribution.

The range of this species extends from Newfoundland (Lindroth 1955a: 73) to east-central Alaska (Lindroth 1963b: 387), south to Nechako River in central British Columbia, northern New Mexico (Fall and Cockerell 1907: 157), west-central Minnesota (Gandhi et al. 2005: 924), the Adirondack Mountains in northeastern New York (Notman 1928: 218), and New England (Lindroth 1963b: 387). The record from “Washington” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 146) is probably in error.
