It was described by Muona (1983) from Finland, then reported in North America from Newfoundland by Muona (1984). Although Muona (1984) included this species amongst Palaearctic aleocharines occurring in North America, we consider it a Holarctic species. The bionomics of the species are unknown. : Published as part of Majka, Christopher & Klimaszewski, Jan, 2008, New records of Canadian Aleocharinae (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 85-114 in ZooKeys 2 (2) on pages 103-104, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.2.7, http://zenodo.org/record/576409 : {"references": ["Muona J (1983) Two new Palaearctic Atheta species (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae).
