Description

Olisthopus filicornis Casey, 1913

This species is treated as valid by Bousquet and Larochelle (1993) and has only been recorded from Rhode Island. There is, however, but a single specimen, a female, making it difficult to determine (without a comprehensive review of the genus) if it is actually different from the widely distributed Olithopus micans LeConte, 1848 (Y. Bousquet, pers. comm.).
