Epuraea horni has been recorded in Canada from Ontario and Québec ( McNamara 1991), and in the United States from Pennsylvania south to North Carolina and west to Illinois ( Parsons 1943). No bionomical information is available for this species, but we suspect it to be mycetophagous on various fungal substrata in a similar manner as its close relative E. helvola .
