Zusammenfassung:Ptosima Dejean, 1833 (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) (Fig. 1) contains 10 extant species worldwide (Bellamy 2008) with four species occurring in North American (Nelson 1978, Nelson et al. 2008). Nelson (1978) keyed and redescribed the North American species. Plant genera records for Ptosima spp. include Crataegeus (Rosaceae), Cercis (Fabaceae) and Quercus (Fagaceae) (Paiero et al. 2012). Ptosima idolynae Frost, 1923 and P. laeta Waterhouse, 1882 are confined to south central North America, whereas P. gibbicollis (Say, 1823) and P. walshii LeConte, 1863 are widely distributed in eastern North America. Bright (1987) stated that P. gibbicollis "probably occurs in southern Ontario", but makes no mention of P. walshii. Paiero et al. (2012) mapped the distribution of P. gibbicollis as occurring in Ontario.
