Notes: Most records (n = 17) for this oligolege of Asteraceae (Hurd 1979) in Connecticut come from only 3 dates in 1967 from collections by M. S. Favreau in New Canaan (Fairfield County). There is a single record from Fairfield County in 1983, collector unknown. In 2020 and 2023, this species was detected in the towns of Southbury and North Haven (New Haven County) by community scientists on iNaturalist (https://www.inaturalist. org/observations?place_id=49&subview=table&taxon_id=336484) (see also Figure 2 View FIGURE 2 , F). It was also documented recently in the western counties of Massachusetts, where it is common on sunflowers ( Helianthus sp. ) in community gardens, small farms, and natural areas (Veit et al. 2022[“2021”]).
