Comments.

All 16 specimens of Eubulus bisignatus (Say) were captured in Lindgren funnel traps in the canopy of either Populus tremuloides or Populus grandifolia ; none in traps in the understory. The species is most often collected in light traps and has been associated with a variety of hardwood trees ( Anderson 2008).
