May 2014 in A New Subgenus of Bembidion Latreille from México and Guatemala, with Descriptions of Two New Species (Coleoptera: Carabidae)

May 2014, John Sproul and I searched at multiple known localities for this species, including at Hastings Natural History Reserve, Pinnacles National Park, around Santa Barbara, and at many other localities in between. We searched in typical Liocosmius microhabitats (including steep sand banks in partial shade), with no success. Along Finch Creek in Hastings Natural History Reserve, the only Bembidion in those microhabitats was B. iridescens LeConte; in nearby micro- habitats along the creek shore were three species of Bembidion: B. californicum Hay- ward, B. perspicuum LeConte, and B. lugubre LeConte.
