Distribution.

Natural history.

The SK female was captured in decaying mushrooms in September. In LB, adults were abundant in pitfall traps during July and August in an open spruce forest with sandy soil and Cladina lichen cover, and a few adults were captured using pitfall traps in a birch-dominated forest ( Klimaszewski et al. 2011). Elsewhere, adults occurred from July to October in organic debris in red spruce forest, in polypore fungus in coniferous forest, and on the forest floor in red oak and deciduous forests ( Klimaszewski et al. 2005, Majka and Klimaszewski 2008, 2010).
