Type locality: "Douglas Spring, Routt Co[unty], Colo[rado]" (neotype label). Neotype (♂), designated by Lindroth and Freitag (1969: 331), in MCZ [# 33087]. Note. "Arkansa [probably the Arkansas River since Say added "found near the Rocky mountains "]" was the area originally cited by Say (1823b: 150). Carabus zimmermani LeConte, 1847: 445. Type locality: "Rocky Mountains" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] in MCZ [# 638]. Synonymy established by Jeannel (1940: 175). Etymology. The species name honors Christian Zimmermann [1800-1867], an accomplished entomologist. Born in Germany, Zimmermann immigrated to the United States at the age of 31 and eventually settled in South Carolina where he divided his time between collecting trips along the East Coast and working on his collection at home. His collection was bought by Dr. Lewis of Philadelphia and from him by George Robert Crotch who sold it to the MCZ. According to Hagen (1889: 57), "a great part [of Zimmermann's specimens] is in Leconte's collection, and can be recognized at once by the number on the pins in Zimmermann's hand-writing."

Type locality: "northern Rocky Mountain region" (original citation). One syntype in USNM [# 37130].

Calosoma zimmermanni tahoensis Van Dyke, 1943: 18. Type locality: "slopes of M[oun]t Tallac, near Lake Tahoe [Placer County], California" (original citation). Holotype (♂) in CAS [# 5296]. Synonymy established, under the name Calosoma zimmermanni LeConte, by Gidaspow (1959: 318). Distribution. This species ranges from southern Saskatchewan to the Okanagan Valley in south-central British Columbia (Lindroth 1961a: 56), south to southeastern California, northwestern New Mexico (Casey, 1913: 75, as Callisthenes diffractus ), and northern Kansas [see Gidaspow 1959: Fig. 11, as Callisthenes luxatus , Callisthenes pimelioides , and Callisthenes zimmermanni ]. At least one specimen simply labeled from New Mexico is known (Gidaspow 1959: 311). The records from "Oklahoma" and "Texas" (Burgess and Collins 1917: 121, as Callisthenes zimmermani ) need confirmation. Records. CAN : AB, BC, SK USA : AZ, CA, CO, ID, KS, MT, NE, NM, NV, OR, SD, UT, WA, WY [OK, TX] Note. Gidaspow (1959) considered Callisthenes pimeloides Walker [synonyms: tegulatus Casey, viator Casey, pustulosus Casey, reflexus Casey, and parowanus Casey] and Carabus zimmermanni LeConte [synonyms: opacus Gehin , exaratus Casey, debilis Casey, and tahoensis Van Dyke] as distinct species but Lindroth (1961a: 55) argued that the structural differences noted between these forms are no more than intraspecific variation.
