Bezzi a (Homobezzia) dorsasetula Dow and Turner View in CoL

Bezzia (Bezzia) dorsasetula Dow and Turner, 1976: 89 View in CoL (New York).

Bezzia (Homobezzia) dorsasetula: Wirth 1983a: 776 View in CoL (revision of Nearctic cockerelli and dorsasetula groups; distribution); Wilkening et al. 1985: 530 (Florida records); Borkent and Grogan 2009: 27 (in Nearctic catalog; distribution).

Discussion. This eastern species was previously recorded in Florida only from Wakulla Co. ( Wilkening et al. 1985). We provide an additional record from this county.
