Discussion
A. G. Rodrigues et al. (2013) noted the existence of a single historical specimen from Jeff Davis County, Texas, and suggested that this represented a historical disjunction. However, it is also possible that the specimen in question was mislabeled.
V. Baird and J. L. Riopel (1986) documented the dispersal of Conopholis americana in the eastern United States by deer and rodents.
