Name
Gyrophaena brevicollis Seevers, 1951 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Material examined
New Brunswick, Sunbury Co., McGowans Corner, Grand Lake P.N.A., 45.8959°N, 66.2823°W, 16.VI.2013, R.P. Webster // Silver maple forest, in Polyporus squamosus (on dead standing silver maple) (1 ♂, 1 ♀, RWC).
Natural history
Two individuals of Gyrophaena brevicollis were collected from Polyporus squamosus (Polyporaceae) on a dead standing silver maple in a silver maple forest. One specimen from ON was collected from gilled mushrooms (Brunke et al. (2012)[1], otherwise little is known about the habitat association of this species.
Distribution in Canada and Alaska
ON, NB (Bousquet et al. 2013[2]). Brunke et al. (2012)[1] reported this species for the first time for Canada from several sites in southern ON.
Comments
Except for a slight difference in the shape of male tergite VIII, the NB specimen agrees with the description and illustrations in Seevers (1951)[3] for Gyrophaena brevicollis. We have noted that the shape of the male tergite is variable in other Gyrophaena species (Klimaszewski et al. 2009b[4]).
