Notes: Despite the distinctive narrow foveae of females and conspicuous sternal hair tuft of males, Andrena pruni was overlooked in historical collections (Gibbs et al. 2017a), and it may have been mistaken for A. dunningi by Viereck et al. (1916). Since Zarrillo et al. (2016), Tolland County has been added to its distribution. This species has been found in meadows, powerline ROW, agricultural land, beach dunes, hardwood forests, school grounds, an arboretum, suburban neighborhoods, and sandplain remnants. It has been collected regularly in Connecticut since 1962 and shows up in regional community science databases.
