Adults of this northern species were collected by treading (forcing emergent vegetation into water) Carex in Carex marshes along a lake margin and a brook. At both sites where this species was found, Carex was covered with pollen. Adults were captured during June. Specimens of this species in the Carr collection in the CNC were collected by sweeping or sieving sedges in beaver (Castor canadensis Kuhl.) ponds, marshes, bogs, dried boggy areas, small muskegs, sedge marshes, swamps, in sphagnum and moss at the edge of a sedge marsh, in wash-up along a river, and by sifting willow (Salix)/poplar (Populus) leaves on a slope around a marsh (Anthony Davies, personal communication).

In Nova Scotia, this species was found in red spruce stands on Fomitopsis officinalis (Fr.) Bond. & Sing., in an old-growth hemlock (Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr.) forest, and in a mixed old-growth hemlock, black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.), and balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) stand (Majka and Langor 2011). This species has been reported from under bark of various hardwood and conifer species, and on fungi, such as Bjerkandera adusta (Fr.) Kar. and Phellinus gilvus (Schw.) Pat. (Lawrence and Stephan 1975). In New Brunswick, Cerylon unicolor was collected from under bark of sugar maple, silver maple (Acer saccharinum L.), red spruce, and a conifer stump. One individual was sifted from flood debris along a river margin, another was found in fleshy polypore fungi on a dead, standing American beech tree. This species was also captured in Lindgren funnel traps deployed in hardwood forests with sugar maple and American beech, mixed forests, a mature red oak forest, an old red pine forest, a mature red spruce forest, and an old eastern white cedar (Thuja occidentalis L.) forest.

Little is known about the habitat requirements of Hadromychus chandleri. All (64) specimens from New Brunswick were captured in Lindgren funnel traps, which visually mimic tree trunks and are often effective for sampling species of Coleoptera that live in microhabitats associated with standing trees (Lindgren 1983). This species may likely live in microhabitats associated with standing trees. Specimens of this specieswere collected from a various forest types in New Brunswick. Adults were collected in a mature hardwood forest, an old-growth northern hardwood forest with sugar maple and yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis Britt.), an old red oak forest, a mature red spruce forest, an old red pine forest, an old-growth white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) and balsam fir forest, and old mixed forests. Most adults were captured in an old-growth white spruce and balsam fir forest (boreal forest) in northwestern New Brunswick. This species is likely a northern and boreal faunal component. Adults were collected during April, May, June, and July.

ON, QC, NB, NS (Bousquet and Leschen 2002). The type series of this species consisted of seven specimens originating from New Hampshire, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Quebec (Bousquet and Leschen 2002). Majka (2007) reported five additional specimens from Nova Scotia. Majka (2007) suggested that Hadromychus chandleri may be the rarest North American endomychid species. However, 64 specimens of this species were collected in New Brunswick between 2008 and 2011, indicating that this species may be more common, at least locally, than previously thought. All specimens from New Brunswick were captured in Lindgren funnel traps, and those reported by Majka (2007) from Nova Scotia were caught in flight-intercept traps, further suggesting that more specialized sampling methods are required to document the occurrence of this species. This species was most abundant in an old-growth boreal forest with white spruce and balsam fir.

Danae testacea was captured in Lindgren funnel traps in an old red oak forest and an old red pine forest. Both individuals of this species were captured during August. The specimen reported from Nova Scotia was found in an old-growth hardwood stand, and Majka (2007) suggested that this species may be associated with old-growth hardwood forests.

Adults were taken by sweeping foliage of ox-eye daisy (Leucanthemem vulgare Lam.) on a barrier beach, sweeping foliage on a sea beach, and sweeping flowers of seaside goldenrod (Solidago sempervirens L.) in a salt marsh. Adults were taken during late May, July, and September.

NB, NS (Majka and McCorquodale 2006). Majka and McCorquodale (2006) considered the Nova Scotia population as significantly disjunct from the remainder of its range (from southern Maine (Dearborn and Donahue 1993) to Central America (Gordon 1985)), and considered Nova Scotia at the northern limit of its environmental tolerances. This species is likely more widely distributed along the coast than originally thought and the distributional gaps may be the result of insufficient sampling in intervening areas.
