Material examined.

New Brunswick, Charlotte Co., S of Little Pocologan River, 45.1546°N, 66.6254°W, 7.V.2007, R. P. Webster, mature eastern white cedar swamp/forest, in moss and leaf litter (1 ♂, RWC).

Collection and habitat data.

Baeocera inexspectata adults were sifted from moss and leaf litter in a mature eastern white cedar ( Thuja occidentalis L.) swamp/forest and in a mature red spruce ( Picea rubens Sarg.) and red maple ( Acer rubrum L.) forest. Adults were captured during May and June. Nothing was previously known about the habitat associations of this species.

Distribution in Canada and Alaska.

SK, NB ( Löbl and Stephan 1993). Additional sampling in appropriate habitats will probably show this species occurs in intervening areas between New Brunswick and Saskatchewan.
