Prosterninae Athous campyloides Newman, 1833 This adventive, Palaearctic species was reported from New Brunswick by Bousquet (1991), however, there are no voucher specimens in any collection examined, nor does Becker (1974) list it from the province. Accordingly, the species is removed from the faunal list of New Brunswick. Athous cucullatus (Say, 1825) PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Prince Co.: Conway Narrows, 12.viii. 1970, U. Grigg, NSMC. Newly recorded from Prince Edward Island. Larvae of species of Athous are found in forest litter or decaying logs (Becker 1974) where they are predators. Athous fossularis (LeConte, 1853) NEW BRUNSWICK: York Co.: Fredericton, 1992–1995, potato field, Boiteau et al. (2000). Worthy of attention is Boiteau et al. 's (2000) record of this species from New Brunswick. Although not indicated as such in the paper, this was a new record for this species not only in New Brunswick but in the Maritime Provinces as a whole. Athous posticus (Melsheimer, 1846) NOVA SCOTIA: Cumberland Co.: Little River, 22.vii. 2004, D. McDonald, flight intercept trap, (3), NSNR. Newly recorded in Nova Scotia and the Maritime Provinces as a whole. Larvae of species of Athous are found in forest litter or decaying logs (Becker 1974) where they are predators. Athous productus (Randall, 1838) NEW BRUNSWICK: York Co.: Fredericton, 1992–1995, potato field, Boiteau et al. (2000). NOVA SCOTIA: Colchester Co.: Debert, 20.vi. 1991, E. Georgeson, NSNR; Cumberland Co.: Diligent River, 23.vi. 1988, E. Georgeson, ultra-violet light trap, NSNR; Halifax Co.: Boulderwood, 24.vi. 1959, D.C. Ferguson, NSMC. Newly recorded in Nova Scotia. Worthy of attention is Boiteau et al. 's (2000) record of this species from New Brunswick. Although not indicated as such in the paper, this was a new record for this species in New Brunswick. Larvae of species of Athous are found in forest litter or decaying logs (Becker 1974) where they are predators. Athous rufifrons (Randall, 1838) PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Queens Co.: St. Patricks, 14.vii. 2002, C.G. Majka, in vegetation along small stream, CGMC. Newly recorded from Prince Edward Island. In Nova Scotia commonly found in red spruce ( Picea rubens ) forests; occasionally in hemlock ( Tsuga canadensis ) stands. Larvae of species of Athous are found in forest litter or decaying logs (Becker 1974) where they are predators. Athous scapularis (Say, 1839) NOVA SCOTIA: Hants Co.: Leminister, 16–29.vii. 1997, D.J. Bishop, red spruce-hemlock forest, flightintercept trap, NSMC; Richmond Co.: Irish Cove, 30.vii. 2004, C. D'Orsay, on striped maple ( Acer pensylvanicum L.), CBU. Newly recorded in Nova Scotia and the Maritime Provinces as a whole. Larvae of species of Athous are found in forest litter or decaying logs (Becker 1974) where they are predators. Denticollis denticornis (Kirby, 1837) PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Queens Co.: Bethyl, 22.vi. 1981, L.S. Thompson, ACPE; North Rustico, 23.vi. 2003, C.G. Majka, seashore, CGMC; West Royalty, 5.vii. 1983, L.S. Thompson, ACPE. Newly recorded from Prince Edward Island. In Nova Scotia frequently collected in coniferous forests, particularly red ( Picea rubens ) and black ( Picea mariana ) spruce; occasionally in young deciduous forests and once on a decaying poplar ( Populus sp.) log. Found in boreal forests (Brooks 1960). Larvae are predators found in forest litter and decaying wood (unpublished data). Hemicrepidius brevicollis (Candèze, 1863) PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Kings Co.: Launching, 23.vii. 2001, C.G. Majka, coniferous coastal forest, CGMC; Queens Co.: St. Patricks, 17.viii. 2002, C.G. Majka, coniferous coastal forest, CGMC. Newly recorded from Prince Edward Island. In Nova Scotia found in both coniferous and deciduous forests. In the prairie provinces found in parklands (Brooks 1960). Hemicrepidius hemipodus (Say, 1825) NEW BRUNSWICK: Carleton Co.: Meduxnekeeg Valley Preserve, 46.20ºN, 67.83ºW, 13.vii. 2004, K. Bredin, J. Edsall, and R.P. Webster, foliage on river margin, RWC. NOVA SCOTIA: Halifax Co.: Halifax, 18.vi. 1979, F.W. Scott, NSMC; Halifax, 15.vi. 1992, no collector indicated, CGMC; south-end Halifax, 19.vi. 2001, 29.vi. 2001, 30.vi. 2001, 2.vii. 2001, 27.vi. 2002, and 19.vii. 2002, C.G. Majka, garden, (7), CGMC; south-end Halifax, 21.vi. 2002, C.G. Majka, railway ravine, CGMC. Newly recorded from New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and the Maritime Provinces as a whole. Collected in a raspberry plantation in Québec (Levesque & Levesque 1993). Limonius confusus LeConte, 1853 NEW BRUNSWICK: Saint John Co.: Saint John, 7.vi. 1902, W. McIntosh, (2), NBM; Yo rk C o.: Canterbury, 45.8841ºN, 67.8428ºW, 8.vi. 2004, D. Sabine and R.P. Webster, deciduous forest, RWC. Newly recorded from New Brunswick. In Nova Scotia found in red spruce ( Picea rubens ), hemlock ( Tsuga canadensis ), white pine ( Pinus strobus ), and balsam fir ( Abies balsamaea ) of all ages; also in mixed forests and on lakeshore. Found in meadows (Dietrich 1945). Commonly swept from grasses and weeds (Downie & Arnett 1996). Pityobius anguinus LeConte, 1853 PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Queens Co.: Flat River, 6.viii. 1966, A. MacKenzie, UPEI. Newly recorded from Prince Edward Island. Usually collected under spruce ( Picea sp.) and pine ( Pinus sp.) bark (Brooks 1960). Larvae are in underground portions of decaying logs, stumps and snags, and are voracious predators on immature Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, Tenebrionidae, Scarabaeidae, and probably other insects (unpublished data). Melanactes puncticollis (LeConte, 1852) NOVA SCOTIA: Kings Co.: Kentville, 26.vii. 1972, D.H. Webster, near greenhouse, DHWC. This specimen was collected outdoors near a greenhouse on the grounds of the Atlantic Food and Horticulture Research Centre in Kentville, Nova Scotia. This species is not found naturally in Canada and occurs no closer to the region than New York (Dietrich 1945). It doubtless represents an imported specimen that somehow escaped. There is no evidence that the species has established itself in Nova Scotia. : Published as part of Majka, Christopher G. & Johnson, Paul J., 2008, The Elateridae (Coleoptera) of the Maritime Provinces of Canada: faunal composition, new records, and taxonomic changes, pp. 1-33 in Zootaxa 1811 on pages 16-18, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.182781 : {"references": ["Bousquet, Y.
