Comments. This species was not recorded from Canada, but it is most likely transcontinental in the north. An isolated population of this species is known from Mt. Washington in NH (Bernhauer 1907). Oxypoda robusticornis is similar to O. leechi but differs from it by its broader body, less transverse pronotum, thicker antennae with more transverse apical antennomeres; the median lobe of aedeagus is very similar in the two species (Klimaszewski et al. 2021).
