Holotype . USA : Michigan : Shiawassee Co. : 3 Sep.1950 , R.R. Dreisbach ( NMNH : 75244) County records: Shiawassee. Notes. This cleptoparasite is quite rare. JSA observed this species at a nest site of a Melissodes ( Eumelissodes ) in Ithaca , New York ( Rightmyer 2008 ). The host record was originally documented as M . denticulatus , but the identification needs to be rechecked as it more likely pertains to M . subillatus . Both Melissodes species are relatively common in southern Michigan .
