Eight specimens were collected from four different localities of Kings and Prince Counties (Table 2).
Habitat.
Robert (1955), Morrissette (1979) and Alarie (2009) reported Gyrinus pugionis from peaty or semi-peaty lakes; Robert (1955) mentioned that it invades narrow outflow streams from such lakes. Oygur and Wolfe (1991) reported it primarily (88%) from lentic habitats. In Prince Edward Island, most specimens were collected from lentic habitats (Tables 1-2).
Distribution in the Maritime Ecozone.
This species was reported from the Provinces of New Brunswick ( Roughley 1991a; Webster 2016) and Nova Scotia ( Roughley 1991a), and from the Magdalen Islands ( Alarie 2009).
