Notes
This species occurs on shaded rock outcrops in forest areas of the eastern United States. It was found at only one locality in GSMNP (Gregory’s Cave, on rocks at the cave entrance) subsequent to the ATBI survey, but is probably present elsewhere in the Park on similar habitats. It is parthenogenetic and males are extremely scarce.
