| DISTRIBUTION in
North Carolina: Throughout the mountains; scattered in the
western Piedmont, where found mostly in foothill ranges;
surprisingly found in the eastern Piedmont -- Orange County -- in
2004. |
| ABUNDANCE in
North Carolina: Fairly common and widespread in the mountains.
Rare in the western Piedmont, where recorded only in several
counties. The species does, however, occur south to the Atlanta,
Georgia, area; thus, it is expected to be found in other Piedmont
counties in NC (and SC). |
| FLIGHT PERIOD in
North Carolina: A single brood; in the Piedmont it flies from
the end of April at least to late May. However, in the mountains
the flight occurs from early May to mid-July. |
