Glischrochilus quadrisignatus has been found in Canada from British Columbia east to Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland (McNamara 1991; Majka and Cline 2006), and in the United States from Maine south to Florida and west through Kansas to Utah and Wyoming (Parsons 1943; Chandler 2001). The species is abundant throughout much of the Maritime Provinces (Majka and Cline 2006) and is attracted to decaying fruit, vegetables, and the odor of anything sweet (Downie and Arnett 1996). Price and Young (2006) found it associated with rotting fruit, corn, dung, carrion, wounded trees, a polypore fungus, and under the bark of black cherry ( Prunus serotina Ehrh., Rosaceae). : Published as part of Majka, Christopher, Webster, Reginald & Cline, Andrew, 2008, New records of Nitidulidae and Kateretidae (Coleoptera) from New Brunswick, Canada, pp. 337-356 in ZooKeys 2 (2) on page 352, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.2.23, http://zenodo.org/record/576398 : {"references": ["McNamara J (1991) Family Nitidulidae: sap beetles.
