Athous ornatipennis (LeConte) (Fig 1), previously referred to as Limonius ornatipennis LeConte, is known from New Jersey south to South Carolina and west to Kansas (Knaus 1906; Kirk and Taft 1970; Becker 1974; Downie and Arnett 1996). Becker (1974) revised the Nearctic species of Athous Eschscholtz east of the Rockies and examined more than 3,700 specimens, but stated that he saw only 18 specimens of A.
