This is a Nearctic species previously known only from Maine, New Hampshire, New York, and Ohio ( Woodroffe and Coombs 1961; Chandler 2001). In Nova Scotiaspecimens were collected in red spruce (  Picea rubensSarg., Pinaceae) and mixed eastern hemlock (  Tsuga canadensis(L.) Carr., Pinaceae) and red spruce forests varying in age from old growth (120+ years) to 45 years. This is the first habitat information about this species. It is a very distinctive species on account of its small size (1.5–1.7 mm.) and very large pronotal callosities which subtend 1/3 of the lateral margin of the pronotum. 2608940911 1949-07-10 1992-08-22 1949-07-10 MZHF, JCC E.
