Note.
This very small gyrinid was collected in relatively low number (five specimens) at four different localities of Kings and Prince Counties (Table 2).
Habitat.
Robert (1955) and Morrissette (1979) reported this species from small deep lakes near dense emergent vegetation (i.e., Carex and Scirpus spp.). Oygur and Wolfe (1991) reported it primarily (71%) from lentic habitats. The specimens collected in this survey were predominantly from lentic habitats (Tables 1-2).
Distribution in the Maritime Ecozone.
Gyrinus latilimbus was reported from New Brunswick ( Roughley 1991a; Webster 2016) and Nova Scotia ( Roughley 1991a).
