Fragile Dogwood-Miner

Notes: This Cornus ( Cornaceae ) specialist, which has a more southern range than some other Goandrena (LaBerge & Ribble 1972), has been found commonly throughout Connecticut in habitats such as small, diversified organic farms, powerline ROW, forested urban parks, inland wetlands, and sandplain remnants. In Massachusetts, J. Milam has reliably captured this species on dogwood ( Cornus sp. ) in western counties (pers. comm.).
