That provisional ID makes sense since...

Soronia grisea is known to exist in the area where I found this individual. Here is the reference to which I am referring:

Can. Entomol. 138: p.325 (2006). Christopher Majka and Andrew Cline. "It [Soronia grisea (L., 1758)] was first recorded in North America by McNamara (1992) from collections in St. John's, Corner Brook , and Pasadena Newfoundland, in 1989 and 1990).
