Bezzia (Bezzia) imbifida Dow and Turner View in CoL

Bezzia (Pseudobezzia) imbifida Dow and Turner, 1976: 38 (Maryland) View in CoL . Bezzia (Bezzia) imbifida: Borkent and Grogan 2009: 26 View in CoL (in Nearctic catalog; distribution).

Discussion. The type series of this species was from Worcester Co., Maryland, but it was also recently recorded from Ontario and Virginia ( Borkent and Grogan 2009). We have identified three females of this species from Liberty Co., Florida in the USNM, but no co-associated males which have distinctive male genitalia. These Florida specimens and others from Connecticut and Louisiana (USNM) will be addressed by a study in progress by WLG of the Bezzia expolita complex.

New records. Liberty Co., Torreya St. Park, 29-V-1966, H. V. Weems, 1 female ; same data except 22 Apr. 1967, W. W. Wirth, light trap, 2 females ( USNM). New Florida state record .
