Fig. 10. Projection of potential distribution for Geotrupes viridiobscurus Jekel, 1866 and G. pecki Howden, 1974 in the state of Oaxaca, representing the estimated climatic range at the Hueyatlaco-I glaciation scenario (20–17.5 kyr ago), based on the actual distribution of both species. Areas in green (1.265–2.390 m a.s.l.) correspond to the modern temperature range of G. viridiobscurus (orange locality points, Sierra Norte) and G. pecki (yellow locality points, Sierra Sur). Areas in blue are too cold and areas in yellow are too warm. Areas in blue are very similar to the present-day projected climatic distribution (2.300–3.400 m a.s.l.). The green points represent the localities of G. nuntiatus Kohlmann & Arriaga-Jiménez, sp. nov., the new species being described in this study and belonging to this species group. It falls within the modelled distribution area (modified from A*©*©ΙΑǤΑ-JΙΜḖΝΕΖ et al. 2020).
