Gyrinus latilimbus Fall, 1922

Gyrinus latilimbus was reported from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia by Roughley (1991) (Fig. 10). Robert (1955) and Morrissette (1979) reported it from small deep lakes near dense emergent vegetation (i.e., Carex and Scirpus spp.). Oygur and Wolfe (1991) reported it primarily (71%) from lentic habitats. We have not been able to find voucher specimens of this species from New Brunswick in any Canadian collection. Consequently, further research should be conducted to ascertain if this species actually occurs in the province.
