The range of this species extends from southern New Hampshire (Sullivan County, MCZ) to eastern South Dakota (Kirk and Balsbaugh 1975: 26; French et al. 2004: 557), south to northeastern Texas (Dallas County, MCZ), northeastern Georgia (Fattig 1949: 28; Clayton County, USNM), and northwestern South Carolina (Ciegler 2000: 74). The record from “Florida” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 192) is probably in error.
