Nicrophorus hispaniola
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Michael A. Ivie (Montana State University, Bozeman) called my attention to this unique
beetle. Stewart B. Peck (Carleton University, Ontario, Canada) and Derek S. Sikes (University
of Alaska) provided useful suggestions and input on the manuscript. Karie Darrow (Department
of Entomology, USNM) produced the habitus pictures.
