Collection and habitat data
Apocellus has been found along streams near moss and in open grassy areas (Brunke et al. 2011[1]). Most adults of Anotylus sphaericollis (Say)from New Brunswick were collected on bare soil among lawn grasses. One individual was collected by treading sedges and grasses on the margin of a small lake and another from drift material (tree bud material) along a cold sun-exposed stream. Adults were captured during June, July, September, and October.
