Bembidium hageni
Hayward, 1897: 89. Replacement name for
Bembidium sexpunctatum
(LeConte, 1852). Etymology. The specific name honors Herman August Hagen [1817-1893], physician, entomologist, and bibliographer. Born in East Prussia, Hagen moved to Cambridge in Massachusetts at the age of 50 on the insistence of Louis Agassiz and worked at the Museum of Comparative Zoology. He eventually became professor of entomology at the University. His impressive library was bought by the MCZ.
Distribution.
This rarely collected species is known only from the Colorado River valley in southeastern California to western New Mexico (Cibola County, CMNH).
