Stenoponia
Ecology of Stenoponia in the Southwestern United States The need for more collecting in the Southwest is evident from the widely scattered records (Fig. 1). From the limited and often incomplete collection data available, adults of both species are collected primarily from species of Peromyscus duri...

Ecology of Stenoponia in the Southwestern United States The need for more collecting in the Southwest is evident from the widely scattered records (Fig. 1).
