| : | The introduced Apionidae and Brentidae in the Maritime Provinces of Canada are surveyed. Perapion curtirostre (Germar) is recorded for the first time in Canada from specimens collected in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. Rhopalopion longirostre (Olivier) is recorded for the first time in Nova Scotia and Atlantic Canada. Changes in the range of Omphalapion hookerorum (Kirby) in Nova Scotia are discussed, and a Nova Scotia record of an intercepted specimen of Arrenodes minutus (Drury) is noted. All records are briefly discussed in the context of introduced Coleoptera in the region. |
