Notes: This species was historically unknown from Connecticut until its detection in Litchfield County by C. T. Maier in 2009. This species is now known to occur at six locations within the towns of Canaan, North Canaan, and Salisbury (Litchfield County). Females of this species have been collected in Connecticut on its preferred host plant, wild bergamot ( Monarda fistulosa ), and also spotted knapweed ( Centaurea stoebe ), while males have been collected while patrolling catnip ( Nepetia cataria ) and wild bergamot. This species has been found on roadside stands of its host plant, along field edges, in a pollinator meadow planting on school grounds, and a powerline ROW near a limestone quarry.
