Collection and Habitat data. In NH all specimens but three were taken by flight intercept (usually), window, or Malaise traps; the three other specimens were found clinging to the side of a water tower. This appears to be another winter-active species, most commonly collected in October–November, and sporadically taken through the winter and spring to May. In NY recorded from caves; two specimens were collected from liver-baited pitfall traps ( Klimaszewski and Peck 1986).
