scientific name

Halictus tegularis Robertson, 1890: 318
status

 

Halictus tegularis Robertson, 1890: 318 View in CoL (Connecticut lectotype designated by Cresson, 1928).

Lectotype. Female : USA: Connecticut: 6 June 1878, W.H. Patton ( ANSP).

Notes: This species is common in Connecticut and has been collected in powerline ROW, grassy fields, agricultural land, coastal areas, suburban neighborhoods, and meadows. The type series comprising syntypes from Connecticut, District of Columbia, Illinois, Montana, California, and Mexico, was surely composite, and even after selection of Connecticut as the lectotype locality (Cresson, 1928) it has been much-confused with other species in the L. gemmatum complex, especially L. ellisiae .
