Abstract

The North American species of the genus Olophrum Erichson are revised. Seven species are recognized, the holarctic species O. latum Mäklin, O. boreale Gyllenhal, O. consimile Gyllenhal, and O. rotundicolle C. R. Sahlberg; the eastern North American species O. obtectum Erichson, and the new species O. cascadeuse known from northern California and eastern Oregon and O. idahoense known from southern Idaho.

Lectotypes are designated for O. marginatum Mäklin (= O. consimile), O. parvulum Mäklin (= O. consimile), O. convexum Mäklin (= O. rotundicolle), and O. convexicolle LeConte (= O. rotundicolle). The following new synonymy was established: O. bernhauerianum Scheerpeltz, O. recticolle Scheerpeltz, O. recticolle curtipenne Scheerpeltz are synonyms of O. consimile; O. quesneli Hatch is a synonym of O. boreale; and O. brevicolle Bernhauer is a synonym of O. latum. All species are described and illustrated with scanning electron photomicrographs and line drawings, five maps showing the North American distribution of each species are provided, and a key is presented to aid in the identification of the species. All available records and biological data for the species are provided.

Résumé

Dans la présente révision des espèces nord-américaines du genre Olophrum Erichson, on reconnaît sept espèces soit les espèces holarctiques O. latum Mäklin, O. boreale Gyllenhal, O. consimile Gyllenhal et O. rotundicolle C. R. Sahlberg, l'espèce de l'est de l'Amérique du Nord O. obtectum Erichson, la nouvelle espèce O. cascadense observée seulement dans le nord de la Californie et dans l'est de l'Orégon, ainsi que O. idahoense, présente dans le sud de l'Idaho.

On y trouve les lectotypes des espèces O. marginatum Mäklin (= O. consimile), O. parvulum Mäklin (= O. consimile), O. convexum Mäklin (= O. rotundicolle) et O. convexicolle LeConte (= O. rotundicolle). Les nouveaux synonymes suivants sont établis : O. bernhauerianum Scheerpeltz, O. recticolle Scheerpeltz, O. recticolle curtipenne Scheerpeltz sont synonymes de O. consimile; O. quesneli Hatch est synonyme de O. boreale; et O. brevicolle Bernhauer est synonyme de O. latum. Des photographies prises au microscope électronique à balayage et des dessins illustrent les descriptions de chaque espèce; cinq cartes montrant la distribution des populations et une clé d'identification complètent l'étude. Toutes les données biologiques disponibles sont fournies.
