Attagenus unicolor unicolor
(Brahm, 1791)
NOVA SCOTIA
:
Halifax Co.
:
Halifax
,
25.vi.1992
, collector not recorded, (4),
NSMC
. An introduced Palearctic beetle, newly recorded in
Nova Scotia
and in the Maritime Provinces as a whole
(
Fig. 3
).
Beal (2003)
indicated that
A. u.
unicolor
had been found on Prince Edward Island, however, in the present study only
A. u. japonicus
specimens were found there and neither voucher specimens nor published records of the former from the province could be located. R. Beal (pers. com.) could not find a source for the original report and now considers it to have been in error. Accordingly,
A. u.
unicolor
is removed from the faunal list of Prince Edward Island. Found throughout the
USA
; in
Canada
recorded from
British Columbia
east to
Québec
and in Newfoundland (
Beal 2003
). For bionomics see
A. u. japonicus
(below).
