Moved
Moved from Click Beetles. for perfect agreement with type of synonym.

 
Should this be Agriotes collaris?
Christopher Majka - Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History said that's the name it should be.

 
MCZ type collection
. . . tells, that collaris is a synonym of fucosus.

 
Synonym
Has the synonymy of A. collaris under A. fucosus been published? Use of the name A. collaris in recent literature suggests that they remain separate.

 
Thanks Boris
I put the synonym in the info page.

 
Synonymy
Insofar as I am aware, this is not correct. A fucosus and A. collaris are distinct species. If someone has synonymized one or the other, they should post the specific reference.
