Abstract

In material collected in 2017 in Antrim County, Michigan, USA, were three specimens of a flea beetle species misidentified at the time as belonging to the genus Crepidodera Chevrolat in Dejean, 1836 (Haack and Ruesink 2020). A recent reexamination of those specimens revealed that they actually belong to the genus Neocrepidodera Heikertinger, 1911.
