iNaturalist records (14). BC: Bighorn; Columbia Gardens; Keremeos; Osoyoos, Kilpoola Lake area; Osoyoos, Spotted Lake; Osoyoos, Haynes Lease; Spences Bridge (e.g., iNat 121543071, 122086201 ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 6–13 ), 139358985, 182376315, 206425359). With its large antennae, the species has a distinctive appearance and is readily identified in the field, which accounts for the significant number of iNaturalist records.
Conservation status. BC: S3S4
Distributional notes. In British Columbia, Tabuda is probably restricted to dry grassland and forest habitats in the Thompson-Okanagan and Kootenay regions (Chopaka, Spences Bridge, Columbia Gardens north to Kamloops), where it is probably at the northern limit of its range.
Ecoprovinces and other designations. BC: Southern Interior, Southern Interior Mountains.
Range. Intermontane. British Columbia south to California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Nebraska ( Webb et al. 2013).
Biological notes. Flight period: 4 April–24 May. Flight is early; only eight of 68 records are after mid-May and none are later than May. The genus inhabits sandy sites ( Irwin & Lyneborg 1980). Records in British Columbia are from mostly lowland sites in sandy grasslands ( Purshia tridentata , Artemisia tridentata , Pseudoroegneria spicata habitats) and adjacent open Pinus ponderosa and Pseudotsuga menziesii woods ( Fig. 16 View FIGURES 14–19 ).
