Notes: Correctly identified examples of this southern species (Bouseman & LaBerge 1978) are nearly absent from regional collections, so its recent detection as far north as Connecticut is surprising. A female was captured in a deciduous inland wetland. The specimen was carefully examined and determined by T. A. Zarrillo and M.F. Veit with reference to Bouseman & LaBerge (1978). This represents a large range extension for this species from the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic Regions into southern New England (there are no confirmed records from New York State) .
