Collection and habitat data.
Species in this genus are associated with Salix and Populus spp. ( Anderson 2002). The only adult from New Brunswick with bionomic data was swept from foliage in a hardwood forest. Other individuals were captured in Lindgren funnel traps in an old red oak forest deployed in the canopy of a large-toothed aspen ( Populus grandidentata Michx.) Adults were collected during May and August.
