Collection and habitat data.

Specimens from New Brunswick were collected from moldy conifer duff at the base of a white pine in a balsam fir stand during May and from leaf litter and moss near a small, shaded stream in a mixed forest during April. The Newfoundland specimens were captured from June through August in mixed wood and coniferous forests, using unbaited and carrion-baited pitfall and intercept traps ( Klimaszewski et al. 2011).
