I have not found any record of Fucellia apicalis in North America. Huckett (1965) listed Fucellia pictipennis from northern Canada with similar wing marking. Apicalis was described from China in 1908 and pictipennis from Greenland in 1907. Is apicalis the correct name for Pacific populations previously misidentified as pictipennis?
