Notes: A reported status of “declining” in New Hamphsire (Matthiasson & Rehan 2019) is inconsistent with widespread detection of this species from areas such as Tompkins County, New York where there are no or at most few historical collections available. If anything, this species seems to be increasing regionally. There are 23 records from Connecticut with years spanning 2003-2019, collected in habitats such as inland grasslands, edges of swamps, inland dunes, coastal preserves, meadows, and a gravel pit .
