Carpelimus obesus (Kiesenwtter, 1844)† Removed from faunal list of NB

Note.

Carpelimus obesus was newly reported from NB by Klimaszewski et al. (2005) from the Acadia Research Forest in Sunbury Co. These specimens, which are in the AFC and LFC, were re-examined and are not Carpelimus obesus . Carpelimus obesus is larger and has different genitalia from any of the Carpelimus specimens captured during the above study. However, none of these specimens can be positively determined to species at this time.
