Type locality: "Fort Riley [junction of Republican and Smoky Hill Rivers, Kansas]" (original citation). Holotype [by monotypy] (♀) in MCZ [# 10]. Cicindela alata Liljeblad, 1932: 215. Type locality: "Chicago [Cook County], Illinois" (original citation). Holotype (♂) in FMNH (Kippenhan 1996b: 52). Synonymy established by Horn (1935: 66). Note. Kippenhan (1996b: 53) reported that the original specimens of Liljeblad were "introduced" into Chicago since Cylindera cursitans is unknown from the vicinity of the city. Distribution. The range of this species, also known as the "Ant-like Tiger Beetle", extends from North Dakota and west-central Minnesota (Tinerella and Rider 2000: 367) to the Ohio River Valley in West Virginia (Kirchner and Kondratieff 1999: 84), south to western Alabama ( Loeding 1945: 10), Louisiana, and northern Kansas (Popenoe 1877: 22) [see Pearson et al. 2006: Map 90]; also recorded from "Montana" (Erwin and Pearson 2008: 207).
