Notes: This species was reported in Viereck et al. (1916) [as Andrena perplexa viburnella Graenicher ], but the historical voucher has not been located and there is the potential for confusion with several other Melandrena species e.g., A. barbara , and A. vicina . This species is widespread in Connecticut, being present in all but one county. Although not common, it is regularly collected in diverse habitats such as beach dunes, forest edges and openings, inland wetlands, powerline ROW, school grounds, grassy fields, and agricultural land.
