Cetema elongatum
Cetema elongatum is a European species recently introduced to North America. We recorded it from several coastal areas in eastern Canada in 1999 (Savage & Wheeler, Entomologica scandinavica 30: 249-262) but we've since seen it from more localities in eastern Canada and NE USA. Seems to be doing well here . . .
