Placusa vaga Casey, 1911 View in CoL
CANADA: NORTHWEST TERRITORIES: 5 km southeast of Inuvik, 68.32881°N, 133.63556°W, 17.VII-3.VIII.2001, M. Gravel et al., mixed spruce-birch forest, ethanol-baited funnel trap, (1m, LFC).
Placusa vaga is newly recorded from the Northwest Territories. Species of Placusa live in subcortical habitats in scolytine burrows where they apparently feed on fungal hyphae. In Québec, specimens were collected in balsam fir ( A. balsamea ), white spruce ( Picea glauca (Moench) Voss ), and mixed white spruce-trembling aspen ( Populus tremuloides Michx. ) stands ( Klimaszewski et al. 2001).
