was collected by the authors in small to large streams at elevations ranging from 18-654 m. All but one of these were sand-bottomed with logs and debris, some with boulders, and one had a bedrock substrate. Their waters were warm to cool, clear and colorless to brown-stained, with currents varying from sluggish to fast. At Emerald Creek (Fig.

specimens were found in areas of slow current among streamside vegetation, grassy margins, and debris packs, and also in faster current on logs and rocks. The beetles &quot;played dead&quot; in the net, remaining immobile for a period of time, and were difficult to see amongst the netted debris. The easiest method to locate them was to hold the net and debris in the water and wait for them to pop up to the surface. They did not fly readily. Specimens have been taken at light, including those collected by Monteith (G. Monteith, in litt.).
