CHECKLIST OF TIGER BEETLES FROM IDAHO (COLEOPTERA: CICINDELIDAE) Gary A. Shook' Abstract.— Sixteen species of Tiger Beetles are listed for Idaho, along with the counties of occurrence for each species. Three species are placed in a checklist of Idaho species for the first time: Cicindela depressula depressula Casey, Cicindela parowana wallisi Calder, and Cicindela decemnotatci decemnotata Say. Leng (1920) listed 5 species of Tiger Beetle Cicindela (Cicindela) repanda repanda De- from Idaho.
