This species was reported from groundhog (Marmota sp.) and ground squirrel (Cittellus sp.) burrows, usually early in the spring (Klimaszewski 1984). Adults were taken from moist soil and grass roots in or near the entrances to the burrows. One of the specimens from New Brunswick was collected from litter in the entrance to a groundhog or woodchuck (Marmota monax (L.)) burrow. The other individual was captured in a Lindgren funnel trap deployed in an old red oak (Quercus rubra L.) forest. Adults were collected during May and early June.

In New Brunswick, adults were found in a mixed forest, a mature red spruce (Picea rubens Sarg.) and red maple forest, and in an old red pine (Pinus resinosa Ait.) forest. Specimens were taken from under bark of spruce and white pine (Pinus strobus L.), and under bark of red spruce infested with Scolytinae. One individual was captured in a Lindgren funnel trap. Specimens were collected during April, May, and June.

NB (new Canadian record).This specieswas, until now, only known from the type locality (The Dalles) in Oregon (Casey 1906). We suspect that it is broadly distributed and transcontinental in North America. It is rare in collections, probably due to cryptic habitat associations.

Author JK examinedthetype material ofthe following species: Phloeopora arctica Lohse, Phloeopora corticalis (Gravenhorst), Phloeopora ferruginea Casey, Phloeopora liberta Casey, Phloeopora oregona Casey, Phloeopora sublaevis Casey, Phloeopora scriba Eppelsheim, and Phloeopora testacea (Mannerheim). All species of this genus are similar externally to each other and differ in small details such as body proportions (e.g., width of pronotum, length of elytra), density of punctation and pubescence on forebody, body color, and shape of the apical part of median lobe of aedeagus in lateral view. The shape of the median lobe of aedeagus in specimens from New Brunswick is similar to that of Palaearctic Phloeopora corticalis and Nearctic Phloeopora oregona, but externally is more similar to Phloeopora oregona and Phloeopora testacea, which have dense pronotal punctation and pubescence, and are less glossy than Phloeopora corticalis. The median lobe of aedeagus is strongly produced ventrally at apex in Phloeopora corticalis and Phloeopora oregona and less so in the other species. We tentatively affiliate the New Brunswick specimens with Phloeopora oregona and suspect that this species is transcontinental in distribution in North America.

In New Brunswick, most adults of Brachyusa helenae were found near flowing water. Many specimens were collected frommoss near the splash zone of a waterfall. It took 5–10 min. before adults appeared after repeated splashing. Other individuals were collected from moss on rocks in the middle of a river, from gravel on a gravel bar along a shaded brook, from gravel on a gravel/clay margin of a partially shaded brook, from among cobblestones along a large shaded brook, and in flood debris resting on a sand/clay mix along an upper river margin. Most individuals from these habitats were collected by splashing water on moss and gravel, or turning gravel. A few specimens were collected by treading emergent Carex and grasses on the margin of a lake near the outflow of a stream and by splashing water on debris on the margin of a vernal pond in a silver maple (Acer saccharinum L.) swamp near a river. One individual was sifted from debris on a beaver (Castor canadensis Kuhl) dam near the outflow area (flowing water) from the dam. Adults from New Brunswick were collected during April, June, July, August, and September. In Labrador, adults were captured in July and August on sand and gravel on the banks of the Churchill River (Klimaszewski et al. 2011). Elsewhere, adults were collected near lake and river shorelines, on clay, sand and gravel beaches, and silty river margins (Klimaszewski et al. 2011).

In New Brunswick, Gnypeta atrolucens was typically found in riparian habitats. Adults were collected by splashing water on moss near the splash zone of a waterfall, splashing water on moss and rocks in the middle of a river and a brook, and splashing water on exposed rocks in the middle of a river. At the latter site, adults emerged from cracks in the rocks after splashing. It generally took up to 10 min. and repeated splashing before adults appeared on the moss or rocks. One individual was collected from gravel on a gravel bar on a river margin. Elsewhere, adults were collected during July and August at altitudes from 61–853 m, otherwise little was previously known about the habitat associations of this species (Klimaszewski et al. 2008c).

This species has been reported from under lakeshore debris and in rotting mushrooms in Newfoundland (Klimaszewski et al. (2011) and captured in an estuary above the tidal zone, under stones, and along a stream in silt, gravel, and leaf litter at other localities (Lohse et al. 1990). In New Brunswick, this species was associated with coastal habitats. Adults were collected from under litter resting on a large log (drift wood) in a freshwater marsh adjacent to a salt marsh, along the upper margin of a salt marsh in grass litter in a seepage area with Carex and Spartina patens, and in decaying sea wrack under alders on the upper margin of a sea beach. Adults were collected during May in New Brunswick.

Boreophila eremita was collected from various marsh habitats in New Brunswick. Adults were collected by treading vegetation in a seasonally flooded marsh, sifted from leaf litter and grass litter under alders in a Carex marsh, sifted from woody litter at the base of a dead red maple in a Carex marsh (probably an overwintering site), and sifted from leaf litter in a red oak marsh surrounded by a completely flooded marsh. One individual was collected with an aerial net during a warm (20°C) afternoon. Adults were captured during May and July in New Brunswick. No other habitat data are available from Canada and Alaska (Klimaszewski et al. 2011).

Hoebeke (1985) reported this adventive species in North America from various kinds of organic debris including grass clippings (sifting), from a Berlese sample of decaying vegetation and compost, from rotten bracket fungus, garden soil, and a trap baited with bacon. The specimens from New Brunswick were collected from decaying, moldy corncobs and cornhusks during May, June, and September.

In North America, this adventive species was reported from a haystack byHoebeke (1985). In New Brunswick, adults were collected from decaying, moldy corncobs and cornhusks. The two adults were captured during October.
