Lebia lecontei Madge, 1967
Lebia lecontei
Madge, 1967: 164. Type locality:
"Texas"
(original citation), herein restricted to 2.5 miles east of Nickle Creek Station, Culberson County (see Madge
1967
: 164). Syntype(s) in MCZ [# 5802]. Note. Madge (1967: 164) proposed the name
Lebia lecontei
as a replacement name for
Lebia testacea
(LeConte, 1880). However, LeConte never provided a description for
Lebia testacea
. The first description of the species was done by Madge (1967: 164).
Distribution.
This species is known from a few specimens collected in western Texas (Madge 1967: 164), southeastern Arizona (Cochise County, CNC, UASM), and
"Tamaulipas"
(MCZ, collection LeConte) and Nuevo
Leon
(UASM) in Mexico. The record from Baja California (Horn 1894: 310, as
Lebia testacea
) needs confirmation.
