Distribution. This European species is adventive in North America where it is known from Newfoundland (Lindroth 1955a: 61, as Bembidion rupestre) to western Quebec (Larochelle 1975: 53), and from Maine (Larochelle and Lariviere1990a: 28). The record from "New Hampshire" (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 137) needs confirmation. Thefirst inventoried specimen collected on this continent was found in Newfoundland in 1907 (Lindroth 1957c: 151).
