Triplax califomica LeConte and T. antica LeConte are found to be conspecific. Both populations represent distinct, well-defined subspecies with a narrow zone where the populations freely interbreed. Data regarding fungal host relationships of this species indicate a broader host range for the adults than is known for other North American Triplax.
