GEOGRAPHIC VARIATION IN THE NORTH AMERICAN TIGER BEETLE, CICINDELA H1RTICOLLIS SAY, WITH A DESCRIPTION OF FIVE NEW SUBSPECIES (COLEOPTERA: CICINDELIDAE)
Abstract Cicindela hirticollis Say 1817 is associated with shoreline and riverine sand deposits and is widely distributed in North America. Geographic variation in this species was analyzed by multivariate analysis of size, elytral markings, and color data obtained from some 4000 specimens from 75 s...
