Dalotia coriaria is a cosmopolitan species that is adventive in many parts of the world including Europe, east Africa, Madagascar, New Zealand, Galapagos Islands (Benick and Lohse 1974; Pace 1999; Sivasubramaniam et al. 1997; Klimaszewski and Peck 1998), and North America (Klimaszewski et al. 2007). In Canada it has previously been recorded from Ontario and Alberta (Klimaszewski et al. 2007, Gouix and Klimaszewski 2007), and in the United States from California, Florida, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York (Moore and Legner 1975; Muona 1984; Frank 1980; Gusarov 2003). This species is here newly recorded from British Columbia. Th e isolated and disjunctive distribution of D. coriaria in Canada represents probably three independent introduction events.
