Distribution.

Natural history.

In Saskatchewan, one male was captured in horse manure. Elsewhere, adults were collected from decaying organic matter, fungi, animal droppings, human feces, and carrion ( Klimaszewski et al. 2002). Larvae are parasitic on fly pupae ( Klimaszewski et al. 2002). The adults were collected from June to September.
