Remarks
The species was originally described from Michigan, USA, has subsequently been reported from Quebec, Canada (Puthz 1975b) and also cited for the Canadian provinces Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia (Campbell & Davies 1991) without citing material. The new data above widen the range to include Wisconsin. Since the genital preparation of the holotype had been somewhat deformed owing to excessively quick dehydration, the figure of the aedeagus in the original description was not quite adequate. Based on the available material, I herein provide a new figure for this structure (see Fig. 5F).
