Description
Homalota plana (Gyllenhal, 1810)
CANADA: ONTARIO: Algoma Co.: 10 km east of Wawa, 30.VIII.1980, R. Baranowski, (4m, MZLU; 1m, LFC; 1, LFC); Lake Superior Provincial Park, 9.IX.1980, R. Baranowski, (3m, MZLU; 5 MZLU; 1m LFC; 1, LFC).
This adventive, Palaearctic species is newly recorded in Ontario. In the Old World it is widely distributed across Europe, North Africa, and Asia including eastern and western Siberia (Smetana 2004). In Nova Scotia H. plana has been found in sub-cortical environments under the bark of white pine (Pinus strobus L.) between December and early May where it is active on sunny days when the sun warms this micro-environment (Klimaszewski et al. 2007a).
