Discussion. This minute, very rare New World species was originally described from three females , the holotype and paratype from Liberty Co., Florida and a female paratype from Imperial Co., California ( Wirth and Blanton 1970 ). Wilkening et al. (1985) added another Florida record from Marion Co., and we provide the first records from Highlands Co. Inexplicably, Borkent and Grogan (2009) did not include California in their distribution section of this species, but they also included Costa Rica based on recently collected specimens in the INBio collection in San Jose , Costa Rica .
