Abstract

The American species of the genera Bryoporus Kraatz and Bryophacis Reitter are revised for America north of Mexico. Two new related genera are described: Bolitopunctus (type species Bryoporus muricatulus Hatch) and Neobolitobius (type species Lordithon varians Hatch).The following new species are described: Bryoporus niger, Bolitopunctus punctatissimus, Bryophacis arcticus, Bryophacis canadensis, and Bryophacis smetanai. Six new combinations are created: Bolitopunctus muricatulus (Hatch) [from Bryoporus], Neobolitobius varians (Hatch) [from Lordithon], Bryophacis discalis (Hatch) [from Mycetoporus], Bry. punctatissimus (Hatch) [from Mycetoporus], Bry. punctulatus (Hatch) [from Mycetoporus], and Bry. rubescens (Hatch) [from Lordithon].Use of the generic names Bryoporus Kraatz and Bryophacis Reitter is discussed. Lectotypes are designated for Bryoporus rufescens LeConte and its junior synonyms B. rubidus LeConte and B. flavipes LeConte, and Bryoporus testaceus LeConte and its junior synonym B. parvulus Casey.All species of Bryoporus, Bryophacis, Bolitopunctus, and Neobolitobius are described and illustrated with line drawings and scanning electron photomicrographs. Keys are provided to distinguish all genera of North American Bolitobiini and all species of the genera treated in this revision. The New World distribution of each species treated is mapped. The biology of each species, if known, is discussed.

Résumé

Ce catalogue comprend tous les noms de rang groupe-espèce des familles Trachypachidae, Rhysodidae, et Carabidae (les cicindelines inclus) correctement recensés de l'Amérique, au nord du Mexique ainsi que leurs mentions d'états et de provinces. On cite les noms valides dans leurs combinaisons actuelle et originale avec l'auteur(s), la date et la page de publication; on mentionne les synonymes dans leur combinaison originale seulement. Pour les noms de rang groupe-genre on indique l'auteur(s), la date et la page de publication, l'espèce-type, et le type de fixation de l'espèce-type. On a préféré le concept de groupe d'espèces à celui de sous-genre mais les noms sous-génériques font également l'objet de mention.

On propose et discute les changements de nomenclature suivants: Bembidion neocoerulescens Bousquet, nouveau nom de remplacement pour B. coerulescens Van Dyke, 1925; Chlaenius circumcinctus Say, 1830 pour C. perplexus Dejean, 1831; Cyclotrachelus dejeanellus (Csiki, 1930) pour C. morio (Dejean, 1828); Cyclotrachelus freitagi Bousquet, nouveau nom de remplacement pour C. obsoletus (Say, 1830); Dyschirius aeneolus LeConte, 1850 pour D. frigidus Mannerheim, 1853; Harpalus laevipes Zetterstedt, 1828 pour H. quadripunctatus Dejean, 1829; Harpalus providens Casey, 1914 pour H. viduus LeConte, 1865; Harpalus reversus Casey, 1924 pour H. funerarius Csiki, 1932; Notiophilus sierranus Casey, 1920 pour N. obscurus Fall, 1901; Pseudamara Lindroth, 1968 pour Disamara Lindroth, 1976; Pterostichus trinarius (Casey, 1918) pour P. ohionis Csiki, 1930; Stenolophus carbo Bousquet, nouveau nom de remplacement pour S. carbonarius (Dejean, 1829).
