Andrena (Andrena) rufosignata Cockerell, 1902 View in CoL

Brown-fovea Miner

Notes: This species has a relatively long malar space, perhaps an adaptation for extracting nectar from Ericaceae which it routinely visits among other host plants. In Connecticut it has been found in meadows, agricultural land, and a mixed forest of coniferous and broad-leaved trees near a swamp and black spruce bog.
