Moved tentatively based on the following Dr Korotyayev's comment
"Type series of most of Allosirocalus spp. are a mix of species, and there are at least as many undescribed species as are described, so the names aren’t worth much anyway. Call it Allosirocalus obliquus, it's close enough."

Moved from Allosirocalus.

Moved tentatively; A. rubidus is known to feed on Pedicularis
nice! will show around

Note: location data reads "...Woodside, CA, California" --pls correct, and don't let the autofill tool get out of hand!

Moved from ID Request.
