Euparius paganus Gyllenhal, 1833 new to New Brunswick, and new data supporting first records for Canada

Note.

This native fungus weevil was recorded "from Quebec to Florida, west to Iowa, Kansas and Texas" by Valentine (1999) without specific details about its distribution within Quebec. We provide those data here for the first time and provide data for specimens from New Brunswick.
