Lasioglossum (Dialictus) cf. abanci (Crawford, 1932) View in CoL , Unresolved morphotype
Appalachian Metallic-Sweat Bee
Notes: This uncommon species has historically been confused with L. oblongum , L. planatum , and L. subviridatum (Gibbs 2011) . Specimens that agree with L. abanci characters using Gibbs et al. (2011) have been collected in Connecticut and throughout the northeast, however they are not ‘true’ L. abanci (J. Gibbs pers. comm.). ‘True’ L. abanci have been collected only in or near the type locality in the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina (J. Gibbs pers. comm) and the identity of the similar morphospecies found widely in New England is unclear.
