Gabrius astutoides was recorded from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia by Smetana (1995). Its distribution in Atlantic Canada is shown in Fig. 15 . Although habitat information was not recorded for these specimens, they were all collected at coastal sites ( Fig. 15 ). Hammond (2000) recorded this species in Britain as commonest in coastal habitats.
