Clypastrea fasciata

Description

Clypastrea fasciata (Say)

NEW BRUNSWICK: Kent County: Kouchibouquac National Park, 21 September 1977, J.M. Campbell, CNC.

Recorded in Canada from Ontario, Québec, and New Brunswick Campbell (1991); in the U.S.A. in Maine (Dearborn and Donahue 1993), New Hampshire (Chandler 2001), and from Massachusetts and Michigan south to Florida (Downie and Arnett 1996). The above record appears to be the source for the report of this species in New Brunswick in Campbell (1991). In Indiana taken from beneath the bark of locust (Robinia sp.) and by sifting debris from a beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) stump (Blatchley 1910). In Europe Bowestead (1999) records various species of Clypastrea as associated with fungal and moldy situations under the bark of dead trees and in rotten wood.
