Natural history
Most adults of Philhygra terrestris from NB were collected from shaded sites along brook and river margins. Specimens were found among gravel and clay under alders, by splashing clay and fine sand on sand bars along shaded brooks, and splashing drift material consisting of small sticks and conifer bud debris along a river margin. The type specimen from the YT was sifted from litter in a mixed forest during late May (Klimaszewski et al. 2012[1]). Adults from NB were collected during June.
Distribution in Canada and Alaska
YT, SK, NB (Bousquet et al. 2013[2], Klimaszewski et al. 2015a[3]). Philhygra terrestris was described from the YT (Klimaszewski et al. 2012[1]). The data presented here indicate that this species has a transcontinental distribution in Canada.
