Note.

Kippenhan (2005) indicated from an analysis of populations that the variation in the dorsal coloration in Cicindela amargosae did not coincide with the accepted subspecific criteria. Probably the form nyensis should not be recognized as a valid entity. Kippenhan (2005: Fig. 1) provided a detailed map of the known populations of Cicindela amargosae .
