Lophoglossus haldemanni (LeConte, 1846)
Lyperus haldemanni
LeConte, 1846b: 341. Type locality:
"Alabama"
(original citation), restricted to "Mobile, Mobile Co[unty]" by Will (1999: 272). Syntype(s) in MCZ [# 5642]. Etymology. The specific name honors Samuel Stehman Haldeman [1812-1880], American naturalist, linguist, and archaeologist. Haldeman spent most of his adult life teaching zoology, geology, philology, and chemistry at various colleges and Universities. As a naturalist, he was mainly interested in mollusks and insects, particularly beetles.
Lophoglossus haldemani
LeConte, 1853a: 248. Unjustified emendation of
Lophoglossus haldemanni
(LeConte, 1846).
Distribution.
This species ranges from southwestern Indiana (Blatchley 1910: 97; Schrock 1985: 354) to southeastern Iowa (Wickham 1911b: 6; Henry County, CNC), south to eastern Texas and central Florida (Will 1999: 272, Fig. 35). The record from North Carolina (Brimley 1938: 121) needs confirmation; that from "New York" (Wickham 1895a: 187) is likely in error.
