Distribution
Atheta (Microdota) amicula is a Palaearctic species adventive in North America. It was reported in Canada based only on female specimens from NF and NS (Majka and Klimaszewski 2008[7], Klimaszewski et al. 2011[1]). In USA, it was recorded from WA (Moore and Legner 1975[8]). For Palaearctic distribution and synonymy of this species, see Lee and Ahn (2015)[2].
