Natural history
The SK specimens were found in compost, wind drift, and beach wrack, from June through September. In North America, this species is associated with decaying plant material such as compost, mouldy corncobs, cornhusks, weeds, haystacks and rotting fungi (Hoebeke 1985[2], Webster et al. 2012[4], Klimaszewski et al. 2013b[1]).
Comments
This species is well established in northeastern and western North America (Hoebeke 1985[2]). It was listed in North America as Falagria sulcata (Hoebeke 1985[2], Campbell and Davies 1991[6], Klimaszewski et al. 2010[3], Webster et al. 2012[4]). The oldest record of this adventive species in SK is that of 1976.
