Summary: | Oryzaephilus surinamensi s (Linnaeus, 1758) NEW BRUNSWICK: Saint John Co.: Saint John, 5.IX.1902, IX.190?, W. McIntosh, (2, NBM). NEWFOUNDLAND: Ferryland (Prévost and Bain 2007). NOVA SCOTIA: Inverness Co.: Cheticamp, 11.III.2005, H. David, in house, (1, NSMC); Kings Co.: Kentville, 29.IX.1960, Mrs. W.R.C., (12, NSAC); Wolfville, 19.III.1960, H.T. Stultz, storage room, (1, ACNS); Lunenburg Co.: Bridgewater, 29.VII.2002, V. Oakley, stored food, (6, NSNR); Pictou Co.: Lyons Brook, 23.IV.1996, E. Georgeson, stored grains, (1, NSNR). Oryzaephilus surinamensi s is newly recorded in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The records from Newfoundland (Prévost and Bain 2007) are from archeological excavations of a latrine from deposits dated from approximately 1620. This cosmopolitan species is a serious pest of stored grain found primarily in granaries, grain elevators, and flour mills. Adults and larvae attack both damaged grain and processed cereals (Bousquet 1990). It is also found on dried fruit, copra, nuts, and carob (Thomas 1993). Unlike O. mercator , it can survive Canadian winter conditions in unheated premises (Bousquet 1990). : Published as part of Majka, Christopher G., 2008, The flat bark beetles (Coleoptera, Silvanidae, Cucujidae, Laemophloeidae) of Atlantic Canada, pp. 221-238 in ZooKeys 2 (2) on page 227, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.2.14, http://zenodo.org/record/576402 : {"references": ["Prevost M-A, Bain A (2007) L'implantation d'une colonie terre-neuvienne au XVIIe siecle: l'apport des analyses archeobotanique et archeoentomologique.
