Description
Dasyhelea griseola Wirth
Dasyhelea griseola Wirth, 1978: 193 (Mexico, Baja California); Borkent and Spinelli 2000: 25 (in New World catalog south of the USA; distribution).
Discussion. Wirth (1978) described this relative of D. grisea from Baja California, Mexico (types), Panama and Trinidad. We discovered four males and one female in the FSCA from Levy Co., Florida that Wirth identified as this species, and these are the first records of D. griseola from the United States. Males of D. griseola are readily distinguished from those of D. grisea in that they lack a mesobasal spur on their gonocoxites.
New records. Florida, Levy Co., Yankeetown, 23-V-1987, Alan Wilkening, light trap with CO 2, 4 males, 1 female (FSCA). New continental US record.
