The Ciidae (Coleoptera: Tenebrionoidea) of the Maritime Provinces of Canada: new records, distribution, zoogeography, and observations on beetle-fungi relationships in saproxylic environments Author Majka, Christopher G. text Zootaxa 2007 2007-12-05 1654 1 1 20 https://www.biotaxa.org/Zootaxa/article/view/zootaxa.1654.1.1 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.1654.1.1 1175­5334 5104052 DCDDF649-178D-4D86-95CC-120624CF165F Octotemnus laevis Casey, 1898 Previously recorded from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia ( McNamara 1991 ) ( Fig. 4 ). Lawrence (1971) and Lawrence & Thayer (2002) both pointed out that O. laevis may be conspecific with the Palearctic Octotemnus glabriculus (Gyllenhal) . If this is so, given the very broad distribution of this species in North America ( Lawrence 1982 ) , it would appear to be a Holarctic species.
