Natural history. In SK, one specimen was collected in May from lodgepole pine litter. Elsewhere, adults were captured in clear-cut Sitka spruce forest on Vancouver Island and in moss and gravel at the edge of small pools at other localities in the interior of British Columbia ( Klimaszewski and Winchester 2002 ). Additional specimens were found in British Columbia in a 1-year-old harvested Douglas-fir stand. In west-central Alberta, adults were collected in pitfall traps deployed in Upper Cordilleran coniferous forests, including subxeric lodgepole pine forests, mesic white spruce and lodgepole pine stands and spruce-dominated subhygric and hygric forests, but not in deciduous-dominated forest or in grassy or shrubby meadows ( Klimaszewski et al. 2014 ). In Alberta, adults also emerged from lodgepole pine trees infested by bark beetles ( Klimaszewski et al. 2014 ). In the Yukon Territory, adults were found in a squirrel midden in spring, probably overwintering, and in a coniferous woodchip pile ( Klimaszewski et al. 2014 ).
