Distribution.

This species ranges from southwestern New York (Notman 1928: 239) to eastern New Mexico (Chaves and De Baca Counties, CMNH), including southwestern Iowa (Fremont County, Doug A. Veal pers. comm. 2009), south to southeastern Texas (Wickham 1897: 111), southern Louisiana (East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Pointe Coupee, Saint Martin, and Saint Tammany Parishes, Igor M. Sokolov pers. comm. 2009), and southern Florida (Peck and Thomas 1998: 24). The records from “Utah,” “Arizona,” and “California” (Csiki 1932b: 1449) are likely in error.
