Collection and habitat data
Calitys scabrawas captured in Lindgren funnel traps deployed in an old red oak forest, a mature red spruce stand, an old-growth red pine forest, and an old mixed forest. This species was reported from under bark of dead pine and from Fomitopsis pinicola (Fr.) Kar. (Barron 1971[1]). Adults were collected during May, June, and July.
Distribution in Canada and Alaska
AK, NT, BC, AB, MB, ON, QC, NB, NS (Bousquet 1991[2]; Majka 2011[3]). Majka (2011)[3] reported this Holarctic species for the first time from New Brunswick based on a specimen collected by W. McIntosh in Saint John, ca. 1900. The above records are the first recent records of this species for New Brunswick.
