Brachinus ovipennis LeConte, 1863

Brachinus ovipennis LeConte, 1863a: 525. Type locality: "middle and southern states" (original citation), herein restricted to Conneaut Lake, Crawford County, Pennsylvania (see Erwin 1970a: 122). Lectotype (♂), designated by Erwin (1970a: 121), in MCZ [# 31774]. Note. Erwin (1970a: 121) restricted the type locality to «Vermont» but that state is not part of LeConte’s concept of the middle states. The lectotype bears a pink label indicating middle states.

Distribution.

This species ranges from southeastern Maine (Majka et al. 2011: 47) and southern Quebec to southwestern South Dakota, south to northern Texas, “Mississippi” (Drew A. Hildebrandt pers. comm. 2007) and, east of the Appalachian Mountains, to Long Island, New York [see Erwin 1970a: Fig. 303].
