Notes: A single specimen of this southern species was collected 13 Jun 2009 by M.F. Veit at Keney Park in East Hartford (Hartford County) during Hartford’s first BioBlitz event. Despite its close resemblance to A. imitatrix and its inclusion as a divergent member of “The imitatrix group” within the subgenus by LaBerge (1961) this species may need to be removed from subgenus Scrapteropsis based on its position in a recent phylogenetic analysis closer to the seemingly different subgenera Onagrandrena and Diandrena than to the type species of Scrapteropsis and of its subjective synonym Mimandrena (Pisanty et al. 2022) .
