The study suggests that B. burgdorferi-infected I. scapularis can be found over a wide geographic range in Canada, although most may be adventitious ticks carried from endemic areas in the United States and Canada by migrating birds.

Twenty-nine species of mammals and three species of birds were identified as hosts for different life stages of these ticks and range expansion of D. variabilis has resulted in a zone of sympatry at least 200 km wide.

It is conservatively estimated that nearly 10,000 species of mites occur in Canada, but the actual number could be 15,000 or more, which means that at least 70% of Canada’s mite fauna is yet unrecorded.

- Environmental Science
- 1 July 1985
Ephoron album was the dominant summer mayfly in shallow riffles in the agricultural zone of the Valley River, Manitoba, in 1982 and 1983; eggs deposited in August hatched in late May of the following year and nymphs developed rapidly during the summer months.
