Leiodes impersonata Brown, 1932 View in CoL
NOVA SCOTIA: Victoria Co.: 3 km west of Paquets Lake, Cape Breton Highlands National Park, 17.IX.1984, J.M. Campbell and A. Davies, sifting moss, (3, CNC).
Although Leiodes impersonata was reported for Nova Scotia by Peck (1991), it was not recorded from the province by Baranowski (1993) in his revision of the genus Leiodes . The above record establishes the presence of the species in Nova Scotia. It was recorded from New Brunswick by Baranowski (1993) ( Fig. 5 View Fig ). Most species of Leiodes are believed to feed on subterranean fungi. The identity of these fungi is unknown ( Baranowski 1993). It is found along small roads or trails in deciduous forests, especially with rather sandy (but not dry) soil and rich vegetation ( Baranowski 1993).
