Andrena (Scrapteropsis s. l.) alleghaniensis Viereck, 1907

Alleghany Miner

Notes: This species and perhaps others in “The alleghaniensis group” (LaBerge 1971) may need to be removed from subgenus Scrapteropsis based on its position in a recent phylogenetic analysis closer to subgenus Rhapandrena than to the type species of Scrapteropsis and of its subjective synonym Mimandrena (Pisanty et al. 2022) . Andrena alleghaniensis has been found on school grounds, agricultural land, sandplain remnants, urban areas, an arboretum, and along the coast at state beaches in Connecticut.
