Index of Subjects Hi Bev Have checked in the Collections - we have none in the NSM Collections either.

Bev: I am familiar with them from southern Ontario and in Alberta. In 25 years in Cape Breton I have never seen one. There are photos in BugGuide from Westmorland County in NB (by Stuart Tingley), so perhaps they do occur in the Amherst area.

Has anyone ever seen Ambush Bugs (Phymatinae) such as Phymata pennsylvanica here in Nova Scotia? I have yet to find one here although I have watched for them. They were very common back at my farm in Ontario -- usually found on goldenrod and yarrow. I'm a little surprised not to see them here, but perhaps I will find them yet. I checked the Bugguide.com data on Phymatinae and it shows them as being unreported in Nova Scotia. Of course, this just means that no one in NS has submitted a photo of one to Bugguide, but maybe they just aren't around. Any thoughts on this? Here's the map from Bugguide. http://bugguide.net/node/view/266425/data Bev Wigney Round Hill, NS
