--000000000000aeee3e05f6b6f07a Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Maybe occidentalis and nelsoni are conspecific. Maybe they are not conspecific. It is an open question for me. Here is link to a distribution map that I have found interesting since it was published in 2001: https://flic.kr/p/2omG89v Note the clean distribution gap between occidentalis and nelsoni in NE British Columbia. I wonder if it is real or if it is just a product of insufficient collecting to determine the facts on the ground. I suspect the latter. I also wonder if there are records of nelsoni further south in the Rocky Mtns than shown on this map and they have been so far misidentified as occidentalis. I confess that I have not yet taken the time to review my own collections from that region to see if I have some nelsoni from further south. I would like to chat with anyone who has specimens that might help to clarify this situation. -- Norbert Kondla Calgary, Alberta, Canada (elevation 1060 metres asl) https://www.flickr.com/photos/118126948@N03/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
