Stilobezzia (Stilobezzia) bulla Thomsen View in CoL

Stilobezzia bulla Thomsen, 1935: 289 View in CoL (New York).

Stilobezzia (Stilobezzia) bulla: Wirth 1953a: 74 View in CoL ; Wilkening et al. 1985: 526 (Florida records); Borkent and Grogan 2009: 22 (in Nearctic catalog; distribution).

Discussion. Wilkening et al. (1985) recorded this common eastern species from Alachua, Baker, Citrus, Franklin, Gulf, Highlands, Jefferson, Leon, Liberty, Orange and Santa Rosa counties. Among material identified by Wirth as S. bulla in the FSCA are a female and male from Alachua Co., that are actually specimens of S. thomsenae , and their locality data are listed under that species. Porch et al. (1992) recorded a specimen from Walton Co. that was collected from a sundew, the first record of this species from that county that we include below.
