Falagria dissecta
Erichson, 1839
Hoebeke (1985)
recorded this species from
New Brunswick
and
Nova Scotia
.
Davies (1979)
found it in seaweed beach wrack in St. Andrews,
New Brunswick
.
Howden (1970)
and
Wright (1989)
recorded it from pond-edge debris on Sable Island, NS, and
Hoebeke (1985)
noted that it occurs in beach debris. Its distribution in Atlantic
Canada
is shown in
Fig. 13
.
Hoebeke (1985)
erroneously plotted the Sable Island (
160 km
off the Atlantic coast of
Nova Scotia
) records as being from Cape Sable Island (in southwestern
Nova Scotia
). It is a species found in many decompositional situations (
Hoebeke 1985
) that only occurs sporadically in coastline environments.
