“…South of Alberta and British Columbia, it normally is restricted to high elevations (> 2000 m) within the Rocky Mountains as far south as Colorado. LeConte (1878) and Hamilton (1894) reported that E. americana was common at elevations of 8 000 -11 000 feet in the Rocky Mountains of the United States.…”

Most of the range of the red turnip beetle, Entomoscelis americana Brown, lies within the Western Cordillera and Interior Plains physiographic regions of North America between latitudes 45°N and 68°N. Entomoscelis americana is associated mainly with three types of vegetation: forests, forest–grasslands, and grasslands. Temperature adaptations in the egg, larval, pupal, and adult stages that permit E. americana to occupy its present range are outlined. Host plant abundance may be the main factor preventing eastward extension of its range. Climate and host plant abundance together appear to limit E. americana to low altitude locations north of 60°N latitude. Eight of the temperature adaptations of the egg and adult stages together seem to limit southward extension of the range. Entomoscelis Chevr. appears to have a Holarctic distribution, with 11 species in the Palearctic region and one (E. americana) in the Nearctic region. The stock giving rise to E. americana may have migrated to North America during the Pleistocene when the Bering land bridge was in existence. Entomoscelis americana likely spent the Wisconsinan glacial period south of the ice in the Western Cordillera and (or) in central United States.

Synopsis of adventive species of Coleoptera (Insecta) recorded from Canada. Part 5: Chrysomeloidea (Cerambycidae, Chrysomelidae, and Megalopodidae)

Structure and convention. This review is based largely on the published literature and on information associated with identified specimens mainly in Canadian collections. The arrangement of the species and classification follows that used by Bousquet et al. (2013). We use the term 'adventive species' for those that arrived in Canada from other countries either through natural dispersal or through inadvertent or deliberate human action during the period since initial arrival of European colonists (Wheeler and Hoebeke 2009, 2017). We do not include coverage of native Canadian species transported to new provinces and territories within Canada. We also do not include arrival of native United States species into Canada. Images. Images were taken using an image processing system (Nikon SMZ-U stereo-microscope with a ProgRes 3012 digital camera or Nikon SMZ1500 stereoscopic microscope fitted with a Nikon Digit-like camera DXM1200F) and compiled using Adobe Photoshop software. Distribution. Each species is cited with its currently known distribution in Canada and the USA. Data for distribution maps were extracted from specimens in collections, from literature records and, in a few cases, from authoritatively identified images from the BugGuide website (www.bugguide.net). Geographic coordinates were standardized using NAD83 datum, and maps projected onto a Lambert Conic Conformal using ESRI ArcMap version 10 for Windows.

“…Even within this genus, some species have a wide range of distribution. Placusa complanata Erichson, 1839 has a Holarctic distribution (Erichson 1839, Hamilton 1894), Placusa tenuicornis Fauvel, 1878 is found in the Oriental and Australian regions (Fauvel 1878; Bernhauer 1920), and Placusa pygmaea Kraatz, 1859 is distributed throughout the Oriental, Afrotropical and Australian regions, though its type locality is in Sri Lanka (= Ceylon) (Kraatz 1859, Fauvel 1903, Cameron 1939, Pace 1992, Pace 2006). The distribution of the latter species is atypical and requires corroboration.…”

A new genus and species of Placusini from a high mountain in Mexico

A new genus and species are described from the Cofre de Perote volcano, in the state of Veracruz, Mexico. Although the new genus is very similar to Placusa, it presents tergite VIII completely modified to form a horn, in both females and males, in addition to other differences in mouthparts. A map and illustrations are provided, as well as an identification key to the genera of Placusini. No morphological characters are apparent to separate Kirtusa Pace from Euvira Sharp in our genus key. The specimens of the new genus were collected using Lindgren and cross traps baited with a mix of semiochemicals: ipsenol, ipsdienol and lanierone.
