Recruitment: ingestion. Distribution: Canada : Ontario ( Bensley, 1897 ; Looss 1899 a , 1899b; Stafford 1903 ; Cort 1912 ; CMNPA; USNPC). USA : Arkansas ( Parker 1941 ; Rosen & Manis 1976 ); Illinois ( Andrews et al . 1992 ; USNPC); Indiana ( Lank 1971 ); Iowa ( Ulmer 1970 ); Kentucky ( Parker 1941 ); Louisiana ( Bennett 1938 ; Goodchild 1954 , 1955 ; HWML); Massachusetts ( Odlaug 1937 ; Goodchild 1945 , 1948 , 1950 , 1955 ); Michigan ( Krull 1935 ); Mississippi ( Brooks 1979 ); Missouri ( Goodchild 1948 , 1950 , 1954 ; HWML); Nebraska ( Brooks 1976 ; Brooks et al . 2006a ); North Carolina ( Brandt 1936 ; HWML); Ohio ( Odlaug 1936 ; Guberlet 1920 ); Oklahoma ( Guberlet 1919 ; Trowbridge & Hefley 1934 ); Tennessee ( Parker 1941 ); Texas ( Harwood 1932 ; Hollis 1972 ; Mayberry et al . 2000 ; Yoder & Gomez 2007 ; HWML); Virginia ( Campbell 1968 ); Wisconsin (HWML); undetermined locality ( Odlaug 1936 ; Lemke et al . 2008 ; USNPC). Specimens in collections: CMNPA: 1900-1617a. HWML: 20127-20131, 20957, 22683, 23424, 23425, 33140, 33141, 48349, 49007. USNPC: 50312, 50313, 51638, 51642, 51643, 82013, 84815. Remarks: This species has been registered exclusively in North America; the only record out of this region ( Kirghizia , Asia by Skarvilovich, 1950 in Yamaguti 1971 ) needs to be confirmed. Records of this species from Oklahoma (representing a new species, Gorgodera circava ) were transferred to G . amplicava by Harwood (1932) ; unfortunately, no type specimens were deposited for specific status confirmation. In the same way, specimens from Ontario , Canada ( Cort 1912 ), Illinois (USNPC 51642, 51643 and HWML 20957), Mississippi ( Brooks 1979 ) and Texas ( Hollis 1972 ) were identified as Gorgodera minima , but Yamaguti (1971) considered this species synonym of G . amplicava .
