Collection and habitat data
Campbell (1991)[1] reported this species from river banks, flood debris on rivers, under logs, and decaying vegetation. Most New Brunswick specimens were found in litter in crotches of silver maples with multiple trunks in an old silver maple swamp (floodplain forest) early in April. This habitat was probably an overwintering site for this species. Many other staphylinid adults of various species were found in the debris in these tree crotches. Other individuals were sifted from leaf litter at the bases of large silver maples. Adults were collected during April and May.
