Description
Naemia seriata seriata Melsheimer
NOVA SCOTIA: Annapolis County: Annapolis Royal, 1 August 1984, B. Wright & L. Morris, 17 specimens, NSMC; Granville Ferry, 30 June 2002 & 6 August 2005, C.G. Majka, 13 specimens, CGMC; Annapolis Royal, 7 August 2005, C.G. Majka, CGMC, 4 specimens; Kings County: Avonport, 9 September 2002, C. Sheffield, 3 specimens, ACNS; Shelburne County: Baker’s Flats: Cape Sable Island, 16 August 1984, L. Morris, NSMC.
Newly recorded in Nova Scotia and Canada as a whole. Found on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts from southern Maine (Dearborn and Donahue 1993) and Rhode Island to Texas and thence south to Central America and the Antilles (Gordon 1985). The Nova Scotia population, found in salt marshes in southern portions of the province, is significantly disjunct from the remainder of the range of the species. Naemia, like the closely related genus Coleomegilla Timberlake, is one of the few genera of coccinellids that can feed largely, or even exclusively, on pollen (N. Vandenberg, pers. com.).
