		<description><![CDATA[Florida is home to several endemic tiger beetle species; one of these is the strikingly green-colored Cicindela scabrosa var floridana. This form was first col-lected in 1934; however, the vast majority of its habitat was destroyed and with no beetles seen since 1934, despite extensive surveys, the floridana form was pre-sumed to be extinct. However, in 2007, a population of C. scabrosa var floridana was rediscovered near Miami FL. Based on morphological, seasonal, and distributional differences, var floridana has been elevated to a full species, Cicindela floridana, in a soon to be pub-lished paper.
