Only two of the six species of Nearctic Pselliopus have tubercles on their pronotal lobes. Of those two, Pselliopus latifasciata is a more eastern species and is only recorded as far west as Colorado. Pselliopus spinicollis is known from British Columbia south to California. The speckles, in addition to the rings, on the femora are supposedly indicative as well.
