Type. USNM

Distribution. W (Ventura)

Host/habitat. Puto yuccae

Remarks. Noyes (2001) cites Compere (1937) in reporting A. maplei from Brazil, when in fact, Compere (pp. 390, 397–398) records this species only from California. The erroneous mention of Brazil for A. maplei probably stems from the next species treated by Compere, A. brasiliensis (Mercet) (pg. 398).

Type. USNM

Distribution. N (Colusa, Imperial, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Joaquin, Ventura)
