Heterhelus sericans has been recorded in Canada from British Columbia, Ontario, Québec, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland (McNamara 1991; Majka and Cline 2006), and in the United States from Maine south to North Carolina and Tennessee, and west to Kansas and Wisconsin (Parsons 1943; Chandler 2001; Price and Young 2006). In Nova Scotia specimens were principally collected in deciduous forests associated with blossoms of Sambucus racemosa L. (Caprifoliaceae), Diervilla lonicera , P. Mill. (Caprifoliaceae), Prunus virginiana L. (Rosaceae), Crategus spp (Rosaceae), and Cornus alterniflora L.f. (Cornaceae) (Majka and Cline 2006); also reported from Aristolochia sp. (Aristolochiaceae) (A.
