| Summary: | Telmatophilus americanus LeConte, 1863 NEWFOUNDLAND: St. John’s, Oxen Pond Botanical Park, September, 2000, S. Lilly, Biology 4150 (1, MUN). NEW BRUNSWICK: Albert Co.: Mary’s Point, August 21, 2003, C.G. Majka, coastal marsh (1, CGMC); York Co.: Canning-Scotchtown, June 25, 2003, R.P. Webster, oak forest, at light (1, RPWC). NOVA SCOTIA: Cumberland Co.: Amherst, June 6, 1993, J. Ogden (1, NSNR); Amherst, June 24, 1994, J. Ogden (1, NSNR); Amherst Marsh, July 24, 1989, J.

Telmatophilus americanus is newly recorded in insular Newfoundland, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia (Fig. 1). It has previously been recorded in Canada from British Columbia to Québec, south to Colorado, Indiana, and New York in the United States (Bousquet 1991; Downie and Arnett 1996). It is found on the flowers of Sparganium spp. (Sparganiaceae) (Hatch 1961; Leshen and Skelley 2002). Blatchley (1910) also reported it from arrow arum ( Peltandra virginica L., Araceae). Both Sparganium fluctuans (Morong) B.L. Robins and S. angustifolium Michx. (Sparganiaceae) occur in the area of the Oxen Pond Botanical Park where T. americanus was collected in Newfoundland (Todd Boland, pers. comm.).
