Cratypedes neglectus occurs throughout the rangelands of Wyoming. Occasional records have been reported
from northeastern Wyoming. It overwinters as eggs and there is evidence for a two-year
life cycle in parts of Wyoming. Adults are present from early June through August.
The species is reported as a mixed feeder that could damage rangelands in conjunction
with other species. It is rarely abundant enough in Wyoming to cause damage.
