Ampedus nigrinus
Black Click Beetle
Ampedus nigrinus is a click beetle species in the family Elateridae, commonly known as the Black Click Beetle. It has a Holarctic distribution with records from multiple Canadian provinces including Alberta, British Columbia, Labrador, and Manitoba. The species belongs to a family characterized by the distinctive clicking mechanism used for righting themselves when overturned.

Anicla tenuescens
Anicla tenuescens is a species of cutworm or dart moth in the family Noctuidae. The species was described by Smith in 1890, originally placed in the genus Peridroma. It is assigned MONA/Hodges number 10909. Records indicate presence in North America, specifically in Manitoba, Canada. The genus Anicla includes species commonly known as green cutworm moths, though specific common names for A. tenuescens have not been documented.

Anisota manitobensis
Manitoba Oakworm Moth
Anisota manitobensis, the Manitoba oakworm moth, is a species of royal moth in the family Saturniidae. It is found in North America, primarily in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Early instar caterpillars are highly gregarious, feeding in groups on oak leaves.

Anthicus flavicans
Golden Antlike Flower Beetle
Anthicus flavicans is a species of antlike flower beetle in the family Anthicidae. It is found in North America, with records from multiple Canadian provinces including Alberta, British Columbia, and Manitoba. The species is known by the common name Golden Antlike Flower Beetle. As a member of Anthicidae, it exhibits the characteristic ant-mimicking morphology typical of this family.

Apechthis ontario
Apechthis ontario is a species of ichneumonid wasp first described by Cresson in 1870. The species belongs to a genus of parasitoid wasps within the family Ichneumonidae, one of the largest families of wasps. Distribution records indicate presence in western Canada, with specimens documented from Alberta and Manitoba. Like other members of its family, this species is presumed to be a parasitoid, though specific host relationships remain undocumented in the available literature.

Arrhenopeplus brunneus
Bruner slantfaced grasshopper
Arrhenopeplus brunneus is a medium-sized, colorful grasshopper of the slantfaced subfamily Gomphocerinae, widely distributed in the hills and mountains of the northwestern United States. The species inhabits mixedgrass and bunchgrass prairies, mountain meadows, parklands, and alpine tundra at elevations from 1,600 to 11,100 feet. During population irruptions, it becomes a serious pest of mountain and foothill grasslands, capable of causing considerable damage to range grasses. The species exhibits a two-year life cycle in mountain meadows and northern grasslands, with hatching occurring in June and adults appearing in July or August depending on seasonal temperatures.

Bessa harveyi
Bessa harveyi is a tachinid fly parasitoid that attacks the larch sawfly, Pristiphora erichsonii, in North American larch forests. The species exhibits bivoltinism, with a partial second generation emerging in fall after host larvae have completed feeding; these fall-emerging adults rarely reproduce successfully due to scarcity of alternate hosts. Despite being a common parasite, it is ineffective at preventing or terminating outbreaks of its host. Population dynamics are strongly influenced by photoperiod and temperature, with warm, prolonged summers under long-day conditions increasing bivoltinism-related mortality.

Blissus occiduus
Western Chinch Bug
Blissus occiduus, the western chinch bug, is a phloem-feeding true bug (Hemiptera: Blissidae) that is a significant pest of warm-season turfgrasses, particularly buffalograss and zoysiagrass. The species exhibits strong host preference hierarchies, with buffalograss being the most preferred host followed by zoysiagrass, though it can survive and reproduce on a broad range of grasses including agronomic crops. Field studies have documented inconsistent control with neonicotinoid insecticides, with thiamethoxam showing particularly rapid degradation in buffalograss tissues compared to imidacloprid and clothianidin.

Ixodes affinis
Ixodes affinis is a hard-bodied tick species distributed across the southeastern United States, Mexico, Central America, and South America. Unlike its congener Ixodes scapularis, this species does not bite humans but serves as a competent vector for Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, the causative agent of Lyme disease. Immature stages feed on birds and small mammals, while adults parasitize larger mammals including deer and dogs. Its expanding range into southeastern Virginia and association with migratory birds has raised concerns about its role in pathogen dispersal.
