Collection and habitat data.
Asclera puncticollis was found in a hardwood forest with sugar maple and American beech, a floodplain forest, an old red oak forest, an old silver maple ( Acer saccharinum L.) swamp, an old mixed forest, an old red pine forest, and a mature red spruce forest. Adults were collected from choke cherry ( Prunus virginiana L.) and lilac ( Syringa vulgaris L.) flowers but most individuals were captured in Lindgren funnel traps. Adults were collected during April, May, June, and July.
