Collection and habitat data.

Hosts of this species include various hardwood species ( Bright 1976; Wood 1982). In New Brunswick, most adults were captured in Lindgren funnel traps during May, June, and July in hardwood forests, red oak forests, red spruce forests with red maple, and an old red pine forest. Numerous adults were collected in ethanol-baited Lindgren funnel traps in an old silver maple forest. Some adults were also reared from a beech bolt.
