Description
Summary:Anaspis flavipennis Haldeman NOVA SCOTIA: 119 specimens examined from Annapolis, Colchester, Cumberland, Guysborough, Halifax, Hants, Lunenburg, Pictou, Queens, and Victoria counties. The earliest records are from 1965 ( Lunenburg Co.: Lunenburg, 19.vi. 1965, B. Wright, NSMC; Lunenburg, 20.vi. 1965, NSNR, 2 specimens, NSMC; Lunenburg, 30.vi. 1965, B. Wright, 4 specimens, NSMC). Colchester Co.: Truro, July 26, 19 xx, R. Matheson, Liljeblad (1945). PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Queens Co.: St. Patricks, 25.vi. 2003, C.G. Majka, CGMC. Newly recorded in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Although Liljeblad (1945) indicated a specimen from Nova Scotia (above) this record appears to have escaped the attention of LeSage (1991 d) and the species was not included in the Nova Scotia fauna. Larvae of Anaspis occur under loose tree bark (Hatch 1965). In Nova Scotia, found only in coniferous ( Picea rubens , P. mariana , Tsuga canadensis , Pinus strobus , and Abies balsamaea ) forests. : Published as part of Majka, Christopher G. & Pollock, Darren A., 2006, Understanding saproxylic beetles: new records of Tetratomidae, Melandryidae, Synchroidae, and Scraptiidae from the Maritime Provinces of Canada (Coleoptera: Tenebrionoidea), pp. 45-68 in Zootaxa 1248 on pages 60-61, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.172970 : {"references": ["Liljeblad, E.
