Collection and habitat data
In New Brunswick, adults of this species were collected in old eastern white cedar swamps and forests, silver maple swamps, a red spruce forest, a mixed forest, a Carex marsh, and a seasonally flooded marsh. Adults were sifted from leaf and/or conifer litter at the bases of trees, from sphagnum and grasses under alders and on hummocks near vernal pond margins, in moist leaf litter under Myrica gale L. bushes, and from leaf litter and moss near brook margins. One adult was collected in an ultraviolet light trap and another from a Lindgren funnel trap. Members of this species have been taken from sphagnum moss and from leaf litter of an alder/birch (Betula sp.) mixture at the edge of a freshwater marsh (Chandler 1997[1]). Adults were captured during April, May, June, and September.
