Agrilus Curtis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) of the Baja California peninsula, México Author Hespenheide, Henry A. Author Westcott, Richard L. Author Bellamy, Charles L. text Zootaxa 2011 2805 36 56 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.277078 0f7d868c-14a8-43b4-aca7-5b54c6915b0d 1175-5326 277078 Agrilus abstersus Horn 1891 (Figs. 51–53) Only nine specimens were examined that are attributable to this species, all from BCN: 10 km S Valle de Trinidad , 2-VII-81 , on Prosopis , W.F. Barr (WFBM); 40 km E, 0.8 km N El Rosario [30.075340°, -115.346733°], beating Prosopis glandulosa var. torreyana , 25-VI-80 , Bellamy & Westcott; Cataviña, beating Prosopis glandulosa var. torreyana , 28-VI-80 , Bellamy & Westcott (both RLWE); 7 mi S El Mármol, 18-VI-38 ; Chapala Dry Lake, 21-VI- 38 , both Michelbacher & Ross (CAS). The latter two localities, three specimens, are part of Van Dyke’s (1942) type series of A. peninsularis ( q.v. ). Elsewhere in Mexico A. abstersus is known only from Sonora, Sinaloa, Puebla and Oaxaca. However, it belongs to a difficult group of species and the southern records could refer to other species. In the U.S. it is known only from Arizona, where it has been reared from Acacia greggii A. Gray (Fabaceae) and Castela emoryi (Gray) Moran & Felger (Simaroubaceae) . Adults have been collected on other leguminous trees and a species of hackberry ( Celtis sp., Ulmaceae ).
