Distribution.

Natural history.

In Saskatchewan, adults were found on ferns and scat, and in wet spruce litter. In Newfoundland, adults were collected using carrion-baited pitfall traps and flight intercept traps in various mixedwood and coniferous forest types ( Klimaszewski et al. 2011). In New Brunswick, adults were captured from litter in a red spruce forest ( Klimaszewski et al. 2005). The adults were collected from June to August.
