Pterostichus herculaneus Mannerheim, 1843
Pterostichus herculaneus
Mannerheim, 1843: 201. Type locality: "insula Sithka [= Baranof Island, Alaska]" (original citation), which is probably incorrect (Lindroth 1966: 463). Syntype(s) location unknown (Lindroth 1966: 463).
Pterostichus scenicus
Casey, 1913: 103. Type locality: "British Columbia" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♀) in USNM [# 46987]. Synonymy established by Hatch (1953: 108), confirmed by Lindroth (1966: 464).
Distribution.
This species ranges from northwestern Montana (Russell 1968: 58) to Vancouver Island (Lindroth 1966: 464), south to the Coast Ranges in southwestern Oregon (Niwa and Peck 2002: 787) and Tuolumne County in the Sierra Nevada (Will and Gill 2008: 123). The record from southeastern Colorado (Wickham 1902: 235) is likely in error.
