Abstract

A new species of Pachybrachis Chevrolat from the western United States is described. Pachybrachis americanus Barney, new species, is similar in appearance to several other species that are predominantly yellow, densely punctate, with ocular lines and with front tarsal claws not enlarged: Pachybrachis densus Bowditch, Pachybrachis immaculatus Jacoby, Pachybrachis insidiosus Fall, and Pachybrachis jacobyi Bowditch. Descriptions, figures, and range maps are presented for each species.
