Stilobezzia (Stilobezzia) glauca Macfie View in CoL

Stilobezzia glauca Macfie, 1939: 204 ( Brazil) View in CoL .

Stilobezzia (Stilobezzia) glauca: Wirth 1953a: 77 View in CoL (review of North American Stilobezzia View in CoL ; distribution); Wilkening et al. 1985: 526 (Florida records); Borkent and Grogan 2009: 22 (in Nearctic catalog; distribution).

Discussion. This wide ranging species occurs from Maryland south to Florida and Mississippi ( Borkent and Grogan 2009), and Chiapas, Mexico south to Brazil ( Borkent and Spinelli 2000). Wilkening et al.

(1985) only recorded it in Florida from Alachua and Gulf counties. We provide the first records from Escambia, Highlands, Leon, Orange and Sarasota counties.
