Didion punctatum Melsheimer

Description

Didion punctatum (Melsheimer)

Although recorded for Prince Edward Island by McNamara (1991) no specimens were located in any collection nor are there published records of its occurrence. Accordingly we have not included it in the fauna of PEI. It has been recorded in neighbouring New Brunswick and so could plausibly be found on PEI.
