Andrena (Rhacandrena) brevipalpis Cockerell, 1930 View in CoL

Short-palped Miner

Notes: Two female specimens collected by H. L. Viereck in Putnam (Windham County) on 12 July 1905 and determined historically as Andrena robertsoni were re-examined by J. S. Ascher in 2008 and found to be the very similar A. brevipalpis Cockerell. In Connecticut, Andrena brevipalpis has been collected in powerline ROW, Housatonic State Forest, and a coastal wildlife management area (Barn Island Wildlife Management Area), which contains one of Connecticut’s largest remaining unfragmented maritime forests.
