Dineutus hornii is newly recorded in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. It was reported from Prince Edward Island by Majka (2008). It is widely distributed in the region (Fig. 7). Note: this species has sometimes been referred to as “ Dineutus horni ” a name which Majka (2008) designated as an incorrect subsequent spelling of “ Dineutus hornii .” Morrissette (1979) reported it from boggy and semi-boggy lakes.
