Meeds made the iNaturalist observation shown
here under a Creative Commons license just
northeast of Las Cruces on 25 June 2018.
BugGuide notes that ÒLarval hosts include: Juglans,
Quercus, Celtis, RhusÓ.
Aneßus sonoranus (Casey, 1924). There are no
iNaturalist or BugGuide observations (as of 06 July
2025) of this species in New Mexico. Observations
on those sites bracket our area, with observations
from California to Texas. See BugGuide and
iNaturalist for those observations. This species is
found on Catclaw Acacia.
37. Anelaphus piceus (Chemsak, 1962). Oscar
JohnsonÕs observation from southwest of Van Horn,
Texas on 29 April 2022 is shown here under a
Creative Commons license. It is one of the
observations which establishes the bracket of our
area (this to the east). There are numerous
observations from southern Arizona.
Genus Anelaphus (Linsley, 1936)
33. Anelaphus albofasciatus (Linell, 1897). David
HeckardÕs observation of 06 April 2024 was made
near Carlsbad. Other observations are from
southeastern Arizona, thus bracketing our area.

38. Anelaphus villosus (Fabricius, 1793) Twig Pruner.
This is mostly an eastern species but there is an
iNaturalist observation, shown here under a
Creative Commons license, in May 2023 from the
Guadalupe Mountains by David Heckard.
34. Anelaphus brevidens (Schaeffer, 1908). Lon
BrehmerÕs iNaturalist observation was made
northeast of Tucson on 12 April 2013. It is shown
here under a Creative Commons license. BugGuide
lists the range of this species from the southwest
east into west Texas.
Genus Anoplocurius
39. Anoplocurius altus (Knull, 1942). All type
specimens have been found on Quercus (oaks). As
of 07 July 2025 all iNaturalist observations are from
north of Phoenix. The one by Òmike_hÓ dates from
24 August 2023 and is shown here under a Creative
Commons license. BugGuide indicates our area is
bracketed, the speciesÕ range extending from
Arizona to west Texas.
35. Anelaphus magnipunctatus (Knull, 1934). Some
sources challenge this taxonomic determination.
The iNaturalist observation shown here under a
Creative Commons license was made by Òmike_hÓ
on 07 July 2024 just west of Portal, Arizona.
