Description

Philonthus couleensis Hatch, 1957

NOVA SCOTIA: Halifax Co.: Sable Island, 5-12.VII.1967, H. Howden, (1, CNC); Victoria Co.: Dingwall, 20.IX.1984, J.M. Campbell and A. Davies, (1, CNC).

Smetana (1995: 331) wrote, “ Philonthus couleensis is a pronouncedly hygrophilous species, occurring in a wide variety of wet habitats … even in marshy habitats along sea beaches”. There are scattered records in New Brunswick, Newfoundland, and Nova Scotia (Smetana 1995) including a few from coastal habitats. Its distribution in North America is shown in Smetana (1995).
