Remarks

This species is only found on the west-facing talus slopes of Cedar Mountain. Baker and Tilden's 1869 Atlas of Harford County shows the western boundary of Wethersfield as including all of Cedar Mountain north of the current junction of Routes 15 and 175. Thus during Wright’s lifetime the steep western talus slope of Cedar Mountain was still a part of Wethersfield, but is now within the town of Newington.
