Type locality: Germany (inferred from title of the book). Syntype(s) location unknown (possibly in ZMHB). Note. The spelling eurynota is an incorrect subsequent spelling, introduced by Latreille (1804: 366), in prevailing usage and attributed to Panzer (1796a); therefore it is deemed to be the correct original spelling (ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1). Carabus acuminatus Paykull, 1798: 166 [primary homonym of Carabus acuminatus Olivier, 1790]. Type locality: Sweden (inferred from title of the book). Syntype(s) possibly in NRSS. Synonymy established by Illiger (1801: 50). Distribution. This European species is adventive in North America where it is known only from a few localities in eastern Newfoundland (Bousquet 1987a: 128-129). The first inventoried specimen collected on this continent was found in 1971. Records. CAN : NF - Adventive
