Cryptophagus laticollis Lucas, 1846

NOVA SCOTIA: Yarmouth Co.: Carleton, Perry Rd, July 18, 1993, J. & T. Cook, car netting (1, JCC).

Cryptophagus laticollis is newly recorded in Nova Scotia and eastern North America (Fig. 2). It is an adventive Palaearctic species, previously recorded in North America from the west coast in British Columbia, Alberta, California, Oregon, and Washington ( Woodroffe and Coombs 1961; Bousquet 1991). It is a cosmopolitan species found throughout the Palaearctic in Europe, North Africa, and Asia, and in Australia, sub-Saharan Africa, and the Orient ( Johnson et al. 2007). It is found on stored products and in vegetable refuse ( Woodroffe and Coombs 1961). The small conical eyes of C. laticollis distinguish this species from the similar Cryptophagus setulosus ( Woodroffe and Coombs 1961) .
