Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Very, very dry with only a few nectar sources. One of only very few species that I saw in the area. At least three, maybe four, in a small 0.2 square mile area. I watched one for about 10 minutes and it never strayed more than about 10m from where I first observed it.

Coordinator notes: their deep-rooted perennial hosts (pines) may fare better than other plants in drought.
