Comments
This species' range consists of scattered and isolated populations disjunct between the Coastal Plain and Appalachians in seven southeastern states. It was recently verified for Virginia through an examination of specimen records and photographs on the SERNEC portal. Field work to determine whether it is still extant in Montgomery County have not yet been conducted.
Habitat
A single Virginia record: "Seepage area over shale" near Ironto, Montgomery Co.; R. Kral 10334, 23 May 1960; specimen at FSU, det. R.K. Rabeler (2013). Evidently rare here, and throughout the range.
