Discussion.
The
holotype
of
Dim. prudhoensis
is similar to the
holotype
of
Dim. dempsterensis
in both external characters and the shape of the aedeagus, including the structures of the internal sac.
Distribution.
Atheta prudhoensis
seems to be widespread in the northern Nearctic Region but its distribution is poorly documented. It is known from
Alaska
,
Yukon Territory
,
Vermont
and
New York
.
