“…In Canada it has been previously recorded from British Columbia east to New Brunswick (Klimaszewski et al 2005b;Webster et al 2009). In British Columbia this species was found in various coniferous and mixed forests (Klimaszewski et al 2005b). Note: this species was reported from Nova Scotia by Kehler et al (1996) [as Zyras haworthi (Stephens)] without, however, supplying collection data.…”

Citation: Majka CG, Klimaszewski J (2010) Contributions to the knowledge of the Aleocharinae (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) AbstractSince 1970, 203 species of Aleocharinae have been recorded in the Maritime Provinces of Canada, 174 of which have been reported in the past decade. Th is rapid growth of knowledge of this hitherto neglected subfamily of rove beetles occasions the present compilation of species recorded in the region together with the chronology of their discovery. Sixteen new provincial records are reported, twelve from Nova Scotia, one from New Brunswick, and three from Prince Edward Island. Seven species, including Oxypoda chantali Klimaszewski, Oxypoda perexilis Casey, Myllaena cuneata Notman, Placusa canadensis Klimaszewski, Geostiba (Sibiota) appalachigena Gusarov, Lypoglossa angularis obtusa (LeConte), and Trichiusa postica Casey [tentative identifi cation] are newly recorded in the Maritime Provinces, one of which, Myllaena cuneata, is newly recorded in Canada. A preliminary analysis of the composition of the fauna indicates that the percentage of adventive species (18.2%) is consistent with that of other groups of Coleoptera. Both Cape Breton Island and Prince Edward Island are comparatively faunistically under-represented, in all probability as a result of insuffi cient collecting eff ort in these areas. A species accumulation curve indicates that it is probable that further species of aleocharines remain to be documented in the region.

Citation: Majka CG, Klimaszewski J (2008) AbstractNew records are reported for 53 species of Canadian aleocharines. Eighty-eight new Canadian provincial records (nine from Alberta, 11 from British Columbia, eight from New Brunswick, 23 from Nova Scotia, one from the Northwest Territories, 27 from Ontario, one from Prince Edward Island, and eight from Québec) are provided as well as six new state records from the United States (three from Alaska, two from Washington, and one from Oregon). Of these, six species including Aleochara (Xenochara) quadrata Sharp, Gnathusa eva Fenyes, Phymatura blanchardi (Casey), Aloconota sulcifrons (Stephens), Myrmedonota aidani Maruyama and Klimaszewski, and Pella caliginosa (Casey) are newly recorded in Canada. Th ese new records are examined in the context of what insights they provide in relation to the distribution and biogeography of the Canadian aleocharine fauna.

“…It is represented by 48 Palaearctic species (including China and northern states of India) and 10 Nearctic species, of which eight, including the one described herein, occur in Canada (Klimaszewski et al 2005;Maruyama 2006;Hlaváč, pers. comm.).…”

A new aleocharine rove beetle, Pella glooscapi Klimaszewski and Majka sp. n., from Nova Scotia, Canada, is described and illustrated. Data on bionomics and distribution are provided. A short diagnosis, description, colour body image, and black and white genital images are also provided. It appears to be closely related to P. criddlei (Casey). Pella loricata (Casey), Zyras obliquus (Casey), and Dalotia coriaria (Kraatz) are newly recorded from Nova Scotia, and for Atlantic Canada as a whole.
