| Summary: | Lathrobium (s. str.) fulvipenne (Gravenhorst, 1806) BRITISH COLUMBIA: 8 miles west of Creston, VI.1968, J.M. Campbell and A. Smetana, (1, CNC). ALBERTA: Strathcona Co.: Edmonton, University Farm, 1984, C.D. Griffi ths, canola plot, (1, UASM). NEWFOUNDLAND: Corner Brook, Loggers School Road, VII.1992, CFNL; St. John’s, 1986, (1, MUN). NEW BRUNSWICK: Albert Co.: Shepody National Wildlife Area, V.2004, R.P. Webster, RWC; Restigouche Co.: Southeast Upsalquitch River, 16.V.1991, D.F. McAlpine, (1, NBM); York Co.: Charters Settlement, IV.2005, R.P. Webster, (1, RWC). QUÉBEC: HautSaint-François; Scotstown, 15.V.2006, 19.VI.2006, 26.VI.2006, 14.V.2007, C. Levesque, abandoned pasture and mixed woodland, pitfall trap, (5, CLC). Campbell and Davies (1991) indicated the presence of Lathrobium fulvipenne in British Columbia, Alberta, and Newfoundland, however, no specimen records were provided. We, therefore, take the opportunity to document its presence (from as early as 1968) from five Canadian provinces. Records from New Brunswick, Newfoundland, and Québec are shown in Fig. 1. It is widely distributed throughout the Palaearctic region (Alonso-Zarazaga 2007). It has also been recorded once in Greenland, although it is not clear if this represents an accidental introduction or if the species is native there (Böcher 1988). In Iceland and the Faroe Islands it is found in dry grasslands; however, in the rest of Europe it is found in moister environments, i.e., under fallen leaves in coppices or small woods, in leaf litter in alder groves, and in meadows (Böcher 1988). In continental Europe, it is eurytopic and also common in synantropic habitats (V. Assing, pers. comm). Eyre et al. (2001) found L. fulvipenne to be abundant in riverine environments in northern England and Scotland similar to the site where the species was found in New Brunswick.
