Cicindela nevadica LeConte (Coleop), 



A series of ten specimens of this extremely rare Cicindela (six females, 

 four males) was taken by Mr. Morgan Hebard, August 23, 1919, on alkaline 

 flats near the Fairbanks Ranch, Ash Meadows, Nevada, at an elevation 

 of 2300 feet. They were very wary and difficult to capture. There is 

 only one specimen without even a State label in the Horn Collection; the 

 species has evidently not been taken recently as no records are available 

 other than Nevada from where the type was described. It is one of the 

 few species not represented in the collection of Cicindelidae of the late 

 Edward D. Harris. In company with nevadica LeC. was taken a series 

 of Cicindela haemorrhagica LeC. (subsp.) var. pacifica Schaupp. FRANK R.
