The type locali- ties and many collecting localities were listed by Michener (1994). The following are new locality and floral records for Mesoamerica: MEXICO: Oaxaca: Km 2(11 and 202 on highway from Tuxtepec to Oaxaca, 2000 m, 26 Dec. 1990, 19 Feb. 1991 and 19 May 1991, all on flowers of Wi^andia urens (L. Godinez; I mo re nee); Monte Alban, 24 March 1991, on Pera barbellata (L. Godinez; Lawrenee); Chiapas: Parc:|ue Nacional Montebello, 50 km east of La Trinitaria, 1460 m, 14 Apr. 1993, on Baeeharis trinervis (J. L. Neff, PCAM, deposited at Austin). On three dif- ferent dates many specimens were taken in Oaxaca on Wi;^andia (Hydroph\llaceae) which may bo a fa\cired food plant. The Andean and first South American records for this species are the following: COLOMBIA: Valle: three males, two females, Cali, probably 1000 m, 8 Jan. 1972 (C. D. Michener, Laivrence); one male, Pichinde, 1700 m, Aug. 28, 1967 (P and B. Wygodzinskv, York). The speci- mens from Cali were taken in a dry disturbed area at the edge of the city. At slightly higher elevations and in moister habitats a few kilometers west of Cali, at Pichinde, one male of C. ashmeaiii, one male of C. zvi/i^odzinski/i, and several males of C. colombiana, as well as several uniden- tified females of this group, were also
