Description

Carabodes polyporetes Reeves, 1991

Geographic Location: AB:ABMI Sites; Moose Pasture Research Site (Walter et al. 2014); MB: Whiteshell PP (Pielou & Verma 1968); Manigotagan 51°05’N, 96°34’W (Reeves 1991); ON: Algonquin PP (Pielou & Verma 1968); Petawawa National Forestry Institute, Chalk River (Bird & Chatarpaul 1986); St. Lawrence Islands NP; Ottawa-Carlton; Chalk River; Black Sturgeon Lake Field Station (Reeves 1991); Lake Superior, Granite Is., Black Bay, ring-billed gull nests (Freitag & Ryder 1973); QC: Gatineau Park (Pielou 1966; Pielou & Verma 1968; Pielou & Matthewman 1966; Matthewman & Pielou 1971); Parc National du Mont- Orford; Parc National du Mont Megantic; Cedarville (Reeves 1991); Mont Tremblant (Behan et al. 1978); Abitibi (Déchêne & Buddle 2009, 2010); Morgan Arboretum (Sylvain & Buddle 2010); NB: (Pielou & Verma 1968); Fundy NP; Kochibouguac NP, Lake George, 45°42’N, 66°54’W (Reeves 1991), NS: Cape Breton Highlands NP; Kejimkujik NP; Laurie PP; Wentworth PP (Reeves 1991); NL: Gros Morne NP, Pasadena Forest Experimental Station (Reeves 1991); PE: Cabot PP, Miscouche (Reeves 1991).

Habitats: Polyporus bracket fungi; Fomes sporophores; boreal mixedwood forest; beech, maple, conifer litter.

Distribution: Nearctic.

Remarks: Based on examination of specimens in the CNC, Reeves (1991 a) noted that all records of C. areolatus from Eastern Canada in Marshall et al. (1987) represent C. polyporetes.
