Notes: This cleptoparasitic species is found throughout Connecticut, as are some of its hosts, Megachile mendica Cresson and Megachile rotundata (Fabricius). The type series of C. brevis Cresson (preoccupied) included Connecticut material but a specimen of C. altilis (a replacement name) from Pennsylvania was chosen as the lectotype (Cresson, 1916).
