Amara brunnea (Gyllenhal) BC: Copper Mt., under stone, 4.IX.1929 (G. Stace­Smith) [UBC]; Creston, 17.III.1946, 1.VI.1947, 29.VII.1948 (G. Stace­Smith) [UBC]; Heffley Lake, 3.IX.1932 (G. Stace­Smith) [UBC]; Manning Park, Allison Pass, 27.VIII.1961 (G.G.E. Scudder) [UBC]; Nation River, Rainbow Creek, 29. VI.1940 (G.B. Rich) [UBC]; Rykert, 1.VIII.1949 (G. Stace­Smith) [UBC]; Tulameen 28.VII.1929 (G. Stace­Smith) [UBC]. Holarctic in distribution, A. brunnea is known in North America from AK and YT (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993). Less xerophilous than most species of Amara, it lives in more or less shady habitats, usually on gravelly soil (Lindroth 1986). At White R., in the Yukon, it has been found to occur on fine sand, partially shaded by alder bushes, among dead leaves (Lindroth 1968). In Europe, this species hibernates as an adult (Lindroth 1945). Its wings are fully developed, but flight observations have not been reported (Lindroth 1992). : Published as part of Jarrett, J.
