Latridiidae View in CoL View at ENA
Corticarina cavicollis (Mannerheim) is recorded in Canada from British Columbia, Ontario, Québec, and Nova Scotia ( Bousquet 1991). Adults and larvae in the Latridiidae View in CoL feed on the conidia of fungi and Myxomycetes, particularly fungi in the classes Phycomycetes, Deuteromycetes and Ascomycetes ( Andrews 2002). The present report provides the first record of C. cavicollis from a bird's nest, however, related species in the Corticariinae such as Corticaria elongata (Gyllenhal) , C. pubescens (Gyllenhal) , Cortinicara gibbosa (Herbst) ( Hicks 1962, 1971), and Corticarina fuscula (Gyllenhal) (W. Rücker, pers. com.) have previously been found in bird's nests.
