[QUOTE="Dracus, post: 252989, member: 6059"] I don't believe that the reason is climate. Even though there are differences in tolerance between the subspecies, every one of them is still very plastic. For instance, in Russia we have the same subspecies (polonica) from 58 degrees north (in taiga zone, with winters as cold as -30 Celsius) to the southern border of the country (e.g., Black Sea, where there is no cold season at all). Absence in NC is probably because of the pressure from Tenodera species. [/QUOTE]
