N. quadriguttata range extens
N. quadriguttata range extension? Well after looking closer at the pictures it bears a closer resemblance to N. quadriguttata although far outside the range given. It certainly appears to have fewer and deeper elytral punctures in the striae and the humeral spot is faint. Sam I would be delighted to confirm the ID if you could send me some specimens. If it is indeed N. quadriguttata you have a nice note to publish.

N. quadriguttata found in OK (and even MO)
While White (1993) only had N. quadriguttata specimens from southeastern TX (1), Riley et al. (2003) did *a lot* of collecting in LA & MO and identified specimens from there as well as from OK (2)
