Natural history.

The SK specimens were collected from willow, aspen, and hawthorn litter near creek, under bark of dead aspen, in polypore fungus on aspen, in May and June. Elsewhere, two specimens were captured in May on Polyporus betulinus , one by general sweeping in deciduous forest, and one in June in red spruce/hemlock mature forest ( Klimaszewski et al. 2004). A few specimens were collected by funnel trap in Stanley Park, Vancouver ( McLean et al. 2009a, b).
