Harpalus solitaris
Dejean, 1829: 337
.
The
specimen here designated as
lectotype
is a male bearing the labels: “male symbol”, “
solitaris
m. Eschscholtz in
Kamtschatka
D. Eschscholtz.
” and “
Lectotype
of
Harpalus solitaris
Dejean, 1829
design. by
J. Serrano
”. These labels thus match the original description:
Il se trouve au
Kamtschatka
, et il m’a été envoyé par
M. Eschscholtz
. The other specimen in Dejean’s collection becomes a
paralectotype
.
The species is found in most countries of Europe and also across Siberia reaching the Pacific Ocean, northern
China
, northern
Japan
and northern parts of North America (
