Table 2 in A new species of Colletes (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Colletidae) from northern Florida and Georgia, with notes on the Colletes of those states

Table 2. The species of Colletes now known from Florida and Georgia. Written in bold are taxa known definitively only from Florida (three species and one subspecies) or this state and adjacent southern Georgia (the new species). An asterisk precedes species that have been reported in the literature (e.g., Mitchell, 1960) from these states but require further verification due to the possibility of misidentifications.
C. aestivalis PattonGeorgia only, where not found recently; of conservation concern due to lack of recent records (Colla et al., 2012) despite a historical range extending northeast to Massachusetts. Perhaps overlooked due to oligolecty on Heuchera (Saxifragaceae).* C. americanus CressonRecorded from both Georgia and Florida, but all records, especially from the latter state, should be reassessed with great care as C. mandibularis and C. speculiferus can be very similar and are hard to separate without examination of exposed S7.C. banksi SwenkFlorida and Georgia. Associated with Ilex (Deyrup et al., 2002). Occurs north to Connecticut and Michigan but often overlooked as collections are sparse.C. brevicornis RobertsonFlorida and Georgia. Occurs north to New Jersey (one historical record) and the Midwestern States.C. brimleyi MitchellFlorida and Georgia. This species is common in the southeastern USA but is not well documented north of North Carolina. Stephen (1954; accepted by Mitchell, 1960) published a New Jersey, Camden County record, but no C. brimleyi were found in an extensive review of material from that state by JSA & Hadel Go (pers. comm.). Known to visit oaks in Florida (Deyrup et al., 2002).* C. compactus compactus CressonRecorded from Georgia only by Mitchell (1960), but Stephen (1954) concluded that it was “not known to occur in the deep south” and listed Bryson City, North Carolina as a marginal (southern) locality. This species might plausibly occur in Georgia in the mountains, but further verification of occurrence in the state is desirable.C. distinctus CressonFlorida and Georgia (lectotype locality). Southeastern USA regional specialist also known from North Carolina, South Carolina, and Louisiana.* C. eulophi RobertsonHypothetical occurrence in Georgia only based on Mitchell’s (1960) report of C. kincaidii Cockerell (see below).C. francesae M. Deyrup & L. DeyrupFlorida, Lake Wales Ridge endemic. Its placement to species group requires further study.C. howardi SwenkFlorida and North Carolina (type locality: Southern Pines) only. A sandhill specialist recently recorded in north-central Florida by Hall & Ascher (2014).
