It is found in eastern North America,[2] from southern Ontario west to Minnesota and Iowa, south in the Appalachian Mountains to eastern Tennessee.

Adults are on wing from June to August in one generation per year.

They feed on the nectar of various flowers, including common milkweed, dogbane, New Jersey tea, staghorn sumac, and white sweet clover.
