- Tinotus caviceps(For diagnosis, see Klimaszewski et al. 2002[1])
Material examined
Canada, New Brunswick, York Co., New Maryland, Charters Settlement, 45.8430°N, 66.7275°W, 7.VI.2004, R.P. Webster, coll. // Regenerating mixed forest, pitfall trap (1 ♂, RWC); same locality and collector but 45.8428°N, 66.7279°W, 14.IX.2004 // Mixed forest, small sedge marsh, in moist grass litter (1 ♂, 1 sex undetermined, RWC).
Natural history
In NB, specimens were collected from a pitfall trap and from moist grass litter in a small sedge marsh in a mixed forest. One specimen from QC was captured in a Luminoc pit-light trap (Klimaszewski et al. 2002[1]); specimens from ON were collected in hedgerows beside soybean fields (Brunke 2011[2] [thesis]). Little else is known about the biology of this species. Adults were found during May, June, and September.
Distribution in Canada and Alaska
ON, QC, NB (Klimaszewski et al. 2002[1]; Majka and Klimaszewski 2008b[3]; Bousquet et al. 2013[4]).
Comments
Brunke et al. (2012)[5] provided additional evidence supporting the concept that Tinotus caviceps and Tinotus trisecus Casey are distinct species.
