Sphecodes aroniae Mitchell, 1960 View in CoL ( ranunculi group)

Aronia Blood Bee

Notes: This species is near its northern range limit in Massachusetts (Veit et al. 2022[“2021”]), and has been confused historically with more northern, but widely overlapping, S. ranunculi Robertson (Giles & Ascher 2006) . In Connecticut this species has been collected in places such as sandplain remnants, sandy agricultural sites, powerline ROW, and in several groves of mixed forests containing coniferous and broad-leaved trees near inland wetlands.
