ADDITIONALLY, it seems that there may be a bit of a taxonomic complication with S. fasciatus. According to J. Kits, DeLong & Hershberger's description for this species does not match some specimens in the Canadian National Collection that had previously been identified as fasciatus, with the style reaching the end of the subgenital plate, and instead more closely resemble those of S. dampfi, which they described from Chiapas, Mexico. However, these CNC specimens are not a direct match for dampfi either, and it seems likely that DeLong & Hershberger were wrong and that instead the widespread Sanctanus throughout the southeastern United States, Central America, and the Caribbean, which all look pretty similar, are the "true" fasciatus; this specimen of dampfi at least looks like the typical brownish form of fasciatus. CNC specimens previously identified as dampfi seem to be the same species as the rest of the others, adding additional credence to dampfi and fasciatus being one and the same (fasciatus is clearly highly variable, and specimens collected from the same site and representing the light and dark forms for the head and pronotum color have been dissected and been shown to be conspecific).
