First records fo the Palearctic species Trechus obtusus Erichson from the Appalachian region of the Southeastern United States

By Curt W. Harden, Michael S. Caterino, Thomas E. Malabad
The Coleopterists Bulletin 76(1): 61–69, 2022

Abstract:
The Palearctic species Trechus obtusus Erichson is reported for the first time from eastern North America. Recent collections in Virginia and North Carolina (new state records) indicate the establishment of the species in the Appalachian region. DNA was extracted from six individuals, and the COI barcoding region was sequenced. All but one of the COI barcode haplotypes were identical to those of T. obtusus collected in western North America. No matches were found with available Palearctic sequences. Individuals of T. obtusus were collected from caves and forest leaf litter, both habitats used by native trechine species.
