Table Rock State Park is in northern Pickens County, SC, but it does not actually border North Carolina. This specimen was taken on the northern bay of Lake Oolenoy, approximately 4 miles from the NC border. Arigomphus villosipes is recorded from Transylvania Co, NC (Abbott, 2006), which is the county in NC immediately north of Table Rock State Park. Pictures of the specimen's diagnostic characters are shown. The eyes have whitened as a result of preservation in acetone.
