Type locality: "Nordamerica" (original citation), restricted to "Boston [Suffolk County], Mass[achusetts]" by Lindroth (1961a: 93). Syntype(s) location unknown (possibly in ZMHB). Nothiophilus porrectus Say, 1830b: (3) [3]. Type locality: "Penn[sylvania]" (neotype label). Neotype (♂), designated by Lindroth and Freitag (1969: 332), in MCZ [# 33084]. Synonymy established with doubt by Melsheimer (1853: 12). Distribution. This species ranges from Nova Scotia (Lindroth 1961a: 94) to southeastern Minnesota (Donald P. Schwert pers. comm. 1989), south at least to southeastern Nebraska (Richardson County, Foster F. Purrington pers. comm. 2009), central Missouri (Boone County, CMNH), northeastern Georgia (Leng 1910: 73; Fattig 1949: 11), and southwestern South Carolina (Ciegler 2000: 20). Two specimens labeled from the Santa Catalina Mountains in Arizona (MCZ, collection Fall) are known and so the species probably ranges farther west in southern United States. Records.
