Type locality: "Sitcha sur l'ile de Norfolk [= Sitka, Baranof Island, Alaska]" (original citation). Lectotype (♂), designated by Kavanaugh (1979a: 114), in ZMMU. Etymology. The specific name honors Gustav Graf von Mannerheim [1797-1854], a Finnish politician who rose from clerk to Governor of Laene Vaasa and Viipuri regions of Finland and president of the Imperial Hofgericht in Wiborg (currently Wyborg in Russia). Early in his life Mannerheim became interested in natural history and particularly entomology. Nebria oregona Casey, 1913: 52. Type locality: "Clackamas Co[unty], Oregon" (original citation), restricted to "Zigzag River at Rhododendron" by Kavanaugh (1979a: 115). Lectotype (♂), designated by Lindroth (1975: 112), in USNM [# 46853]. Synonymy established by Hatch (1953: 58), confirmed by Lindroth (1961a: 74). Nebria corvallis Casey, 1924: 20. Type locality: "Corvallis [Benton County], Oregon" (original citation). Lectotype (♂), designated by Lindroth (1975: 112), in USNM [# 46854]. Synonymy established by Hatch (1953: 58), confirmed by Lindroth (1961a: 74). Nebria hippisleyi Casey, 1924: 21. Type locality: "Terrace, British Columbia" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♂) in USNM [# 46868]. Synonymy established by Hatch (1953: 58), confirmed by Lindroth (1961a: 74). Etymology. The specific name was proposed for Mrs. W.W. Hippisley [1880-1962] who collected beetles at or near Terrace in British Columbia. Born Marianne E. Parker, she was interested also in shells, minerals, and mosses but after a gun accident in 1911 where she lost her right arm completely she confined herself into collecting beetles. She eventually became Mrs. M.E. Clark and left her collection to the University of British Columbia. Distribution. This species ranges from the Kenai Peninsula in southern Alaska (Lindroth 1961a: 75) south to western Idaho and central Oregon (Kavanaugh 1978: 766-772). According to Kavanaugh (1978: 772), a number of specimens labeled from "California," Nevada, and Yukon Territory are doubtful. The records from the Absaroka Range in south-central Montana (Hatch 1933a: 7) and western San Juan Mountains in Colorado (Wickham 1902: 232) are also doubtful. Records.
