| abstract | Adults and immatures of Carabodespolyporetes n.sp. are described and the adults are compared with those of Carabodes niger Banks. The distribution of C. niger is corrected, from Nova Scotia south along the Atlantic Coast to South Carolina, west from Pennsylvania to Missouri and Arkansas; the distribution of C. polyporetes is from Newfoundland west to Manitoba and south to North Carolina and Arkansas. Adults of both species are abundant in forest leaf litter, decayed wood, and polyporous fungi. The occurrence of Carabodes areolatus Berlese in North America is shown to be undocumented. |
