Notes: This species is a known specialist on blueberry ( Vaccinium sp. ) (LaBerge 1980 [as A. longifacies LaBerge ]; Wood & Roberts 2018) and is associated in Central New York State with other Ericaceae such as deerberry ( Vaccinium stamineum ) (Cane et al. 1985) [as A. longifacies LaBerge ]. In Connecticut, it has been collected from leatherleaf ( Chamaedaphne calyculata ), highbush blueberry ( Vaccinium corymbosum ), and mountain maple ( Acer spicatum ). Collection locations in Connecticut include powerline ROW, the edge of an ericaceous bog, and a hardwood forest dominated by oaks ( Quercus spp. ).
