A large series of this species was collected from flowers of winter berry (Ilex verticiliata (L.) Gray) in a red maple (Acer rubrum L.) and alder (Alnus sp.) swamp. Adults were captured during early July. In Wisconsin, this species was captured in malaise traps on the margin of a southern mixed deciduous hardwood forest (Lisberg and Young 2003[1]). Downie and Arnett (1996)[2] reported this species as common on various wild flowers in Indiana.
