Protandrena (Pterosarus) pauper (Cresson, 1878) View in CoL
Notes: The two known records for this uncommon species in Connecticut are specimens collected in New Haven County in 1902 and 1905, reported in Viereck et al. (1916) [as Pseudopanurgus parvus Robertson ]. One of the two was collected from its associated host plant, New Jersey tea ( Ceanothus americanus ), a plant associated with xeric, open, sandy, or rocky habitats such as pitch pine-scrub oak barrens and sandplain communities (Wagner et al. 2003). A female was recently collected on New Jersey tea in Massachusetts (Franklin County) on 3 July 2022 by J. Milam in the Montague Plains Wildlife Management Area, which is a restored xeric barren (J. Milam pers. comm). This is the first sighting of P. pauper in New England and vicinity since <1932 (Veit et al. (2022[“2021”]).
