Natural history.

In SK, one female was captured from maple ( Acer negundo) litter and one from willow ( Salix spp.) leaf litter in June and October, respectively. In NB, Acrotona subpygmaea was found in litter of a variety of forest types and in wetlands including swamps, sphagnum bog, marshes and river margins. Specimens have also been taken from gilled mushroom and under bark (Webster et al. 2016b). Most adults were collected in May, with a few in April, June, August, and September.
