Larval hosts include beak-rush ( Rhynchospora corniculata (Lam.)) and bulrush ( Schoenoplectus fluviatilis (Torr.)) ( Nelson et al. 2008 ). Although the above host species do not occur in New Brunswick, related species in these genera occur in the province ( Hinds 2000 ). Adults have been reported from Carex hyalinolepus Steud., buttonbush ( Cephalanthus occidentalis L.), and dock ( Rumex verticillatus L.). Adults from New Brunswick were collected from Carex sp., swept from foliage in a marshy area in a roadside ditch, and sifted from moist grass litter and sphagnum in a small Carex marsh. Adults were captured during April, June, and July. Distribution in Canada and Alaska. AB, SK, MB, ON, QC, NB , NS ( Bright 1987 ; Davies 1991 ; Bellamy 2008c ).
