Collection and habitat data.
In New Brunswick, adults were collected from under coyote scat, under cardboard covering old chicken bones, in compost, in leaf litter in hardwood and mixed forests, and in moist sphagnum on the margin of a black spruce and eastern white cedar bog/fen. Smetana (1982) reported most specimens from leaf litter in deciduous forests, although a few were reported from a human dung trap and from under a dead beaver. Adults were collected during April, May, and June.
