Myrmedonota aidani is newly recorded in Ontario and in Canada as a whole. It was described by Maruyama et al. (2008) from Ohio in the United States. Most species of Lomechusini are considered myrmecophilous and M. aidani is no exception. Specimens in the United States were collected in association with 14 species of ants of the genera Lasius, Brachymyrmex, Prenolepis , Formica, Myrmica, Stenamma, Solenopsis, Aphaenogaster , and Ponera ( Maruyama et al. 2008) .
