Andrena (Leucandrena) erythronii Robertson, 1891 View in CoL
Trout-lily Miner
Notes: Hurd (1979) reports this spring species primarily collects pollen from trout-lily ( Erythronium americanum ), but it is known to use pollen from other taxa as well, such as Quercus , Taraxacum , Prunus , and Malus (Michener & Rettenmeyer 1956) , and Smith et al. (2018) found the pollen loads of A. erythronii to be unusually diverse. LaBerge (1986a) reports Andrena erythronii from Hartford, New Haven, and Tolland Counties. We have also found this species in Litchfield County at the southern edge of an agricultural field and approximately 60 m from the edge of a hardwood forest.
