Collection and habitat data

In Canada, most records of this species were from tree cavities in deciduous trees (Bousquet and Laplante 2006[2]). The specimen from New Brunswick was taken from the nest material of a barred owl in a tree cavity in a red oak (Quercus rubra L.) during late June.
Distribution in Canada and Alaska
MB, ON, QC, NB, NS (Bousquet and Laplante 2006[2]). This adventive species is now widespread in North America (Bousquet and Laplante 2006[2]).
