Description
Summary:Lasioderma serricorne (Fabricius, 1792) NEW BRUNSWICK: Albert Co.: Mary's Point, 13.i.2003, D.S. Christie, in house, (2), CGMC; York Co.: Fredericton, 26.ix.1987, N. Albert, UMNB. NOVA SCOTIA: 22 specimens examined from Cumberland, Colchester, Guysborough, Halifax, Lunenburg, and Annapolis counties (Table 1). The earliest record is from 1929 ( Annapolis Co.: Annapolis Royal, 9.viii.1929, F.C. Gilliatt, (2), ACNS). PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Queens Co.: Charlottetown, 30.x.1985, L.S. Thompson, (2), ACPE; Charlottetown, 28.vii.1987, M.E.M. Smith, (6), ACPE. Newly recorded in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and in the Maritime Provinces as a whole (Fig. 13). Cosmopolitan, particularly in tropical and semi-tropical regions; in Canada recorded from Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, and Québec (McNamara 1991c). A pest of stored tobacco products, it also occurs in dwellings and stores where it feeds on a wide variety of foods and drugs and is known to attack insect and plant collections (Bousquet 1990). White (1975) suggested that thistles were the ancestral host plant of the species. : Published as part of Majka, Christopher G., 2007, The Derodontidae, Dermestidae, Bostrichidae, and Anobiidae of the Maritime Provinces of Canada (Coleoptera: Bostrichiformia), pp. 1-38 in Zootaxa 1573 (1) on page 30, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.1573.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5096635 : {"references": ["McNamara, J.
