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 Lariviere 1990a: 28). The record from "New Hampshire" (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 137) needs confirmation. The first inventoried specimen collected on this continent was found in Newfoundland in 1907 (Lindroth 1957c: 151). Records. FRA : PM CAN : NB, NF, NS (CBI), PE, QC USA : ME [NH] - Adventive
