Extract

In a recent monograph of the plant bugs of the prairie provinces (Kelton 1980), I stated that the subfamily Cylapinae did not occur in the prairie provinces. However, collections in 1982 and 1983 in Manitoba and Alberta produced specimens of Fulvius imbecilis (Say). This is the first record of this species in Canada. Additional records for Canada are given for F. slateri Wheeler, imbecilis is illustrated, and a key to separate them is provided.
