Collection and habitat data
In Wisconsin, Mordellistena ornata was collected from sumac (Rhus sp.), poplar (Populus sp.), Ceanothus sp., and flowers of two Cornus species (Lisberg and Young 2003[1]). Adults were also captured in flight intercept and malaise traps in oak forests, and in southern and northern hardwood forests. In New Brunswick, this species was swept from foliage along a river margin and captured in a Lindgren funnel trap deployed in an old silver maple swamp. Adults were captured during June and July.
