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.
Athysanella secunda
Athysanella secunda is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Blocker and Wesley in 1985. It belongs to the genus Athysanella, which comprises leafhoppers primarily associated with grassland habitats in North America. The species is documented from Saskatchewan, Canada, though detailed ecological and biological information remains limited in published literature.
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.

Moneilema annulatum
cactus beetle, ambulated cactus beetle
Moneilema annulatum is a flightless cactus beetle in the family Cerambycidae, first described by Thomas Say in 1824. Adults are found almost exclusively on opuntioid cacti (prickly pears and chollas), where they feed on plant tissues and flowers. Larvae tunnel within cactus stems, often causing visible damage in the form of hardened black exudate. The species occurs across western North America from the Great Plains to the Pacific coast.

It occurs across northern North America, with documented populations in the Canadian prairies and northern New England. The species is assigned MONA/Hodges number 9412. As a member of the cutworm moth group, it is presumed to have nocturnal adult activity and larval development in herbaceous habitats.
Neophylax splendens
Neophylax splendens is a species of caddisfly in the family Uenoidae (formerly Thremmatidae). Larvae construct protective cases using silk and materials gathered from streambeds. The species was first described from North America in 1948 and has since been recorded in the Cypress Hills of Saskatchewan, Canada, representing a significant biogeographical extension linking montane regions of British Columbia and Utah to the southwestern corner of Saskatchewan.
Olethreutes schulziana
Olethreutes schulziana is a species of tortricid moth in the family Tortricidae, subfamily Olethreutinae. It was described by Fabricius in 1776. Records indicate its presence in the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. As with many Olethreutes species, detailed biological information remains limited in published literature.
Pedilus abnormis
fire-colored beetle
Pedilus abnormis is a species of fire-colored beetle in the family Pyrochroidae, described by Horn in 1874. It is found in North America, with confirmed records from Alberta and Saskatchewan in Canada. The species belongs to a family commonly known as fire-colored beetles, though specific biological details for this particular species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
Poecilonota thureura
Poecilonota thureura is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae. The species is found in North America, with records from Canada (Manitoba, Saskatchewan) and the United States. It has been collected as prey by the biosurveillance wasp Cerceris fumipennis, which specializes in capturing buprestid beetles. The species is considered uncommon in collections.
Polia nugatis
cutworm, dart moth
Polia nugatis is a species of cutworm or dart moth in the family Noctuidae, first described by Smith in 1898. It is native to North America, with documented presence in the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. The species is classified within the tribe Hadenini and is one of approximately 146 observed taxa in its genus on iNaturalist.
Protoperigea posticata
Protoperigea posticata is a species of cutworm or dart moth in the family Noctuidae. It was first described by Harvey in 1875, originally placed in the genus Orthosia. The species is known from North America, with records from the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. It is assigned MONA/Hodges number 9643.
Pyrgus scriptura
Small Checkered-Skipper, small checkered skipper
Pyrgus scriptura is a small skipper butterfly in the family Hesperiidae, commonly known as the small checkered skipper. It occurs across the western and central United States and southern Canada. The species has two generations per year and is associated with open, dry habitats. Larvae feed on plants in the mallow family (Malvaceae), particularly Sida hederacea.
Rhagonycha campestris
soldier beetle
Rhagonycha campestris is a species of soldier beetle in the family Cantharidae. It is native to North America and has been recorded from the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. As a member of the soldier beetle family, it belongs to a group of soft-bodied beetles commonly found on flowers and foliage. The species was described by Green in 1941.
Scymnus caurinus
northwestern lady beetle
Scymnus caurinus, commonly known as the northwestern lady beetle, is a species of dusky lady beetle in the family Coccinellidae. It is a small predatory beetle native to western North America, with records from the Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan. As a member of the genus Scymnus, it belongs to a group of lady beetles generally associated with aphid predation, though specific prey relationships for this species remain poorly documented. The species was described by Horn in 1895.
Sergiolus angustus
Sergiolus angustus is a ground spider in the family Gnaphosidae, native to western North America. Like other members of its genus, it exhibits bold coloration that may represent mimicry of velvet ants (Mutillidae). The species is medium-sized, diurnal, and nomadic, actively hunting rather than building webs to capture prey. It constructs silk retreats for molting, egg guarding, and overwintering.
Trichordestra liquida
cutworm moth, dart moth
Trichordestra liquida is a species of cutworm or dart moth in the family Noctuidae. It occurs in North America, with distribution records from Alberta and Saskatchewan in Canada. The species was described by Grote in 1881 and is assigned MONA/Hodges number 10308.
Trieces integer
Trieces integer is a species of ichneumonid wasp described by Townes & Townes in 1959. The genus Trieces belongs to the family Ichneumonidae, one of the largest families of parasitoid wasps. Very little published biological information exists for this species. The genus name Trieces derives from Greek, with 'tri-' meaning three and 'eces' likely referring to some morphological feature, though the specific meaning of 'integer' (Latin for 'whole' or 'intact') in this context is not documented in available sources.
Xylena thoracica
Acadian Swordgrass Moth
Xylena thoracica, commonly known as the Acadian Swordgrass Moth, is a species of cutworm moth in the family Noctuidae. It is found in North America, with records from Canada (Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan) and the United States (Vermont). The species was first described by Putnam-Cramer in 1886 and is assigned Hodges number 9875.
Xysticus gulosus
Xysticus gulosus is a species of crab spider in the family Thomisidae, described by Keyserling in 1880. It belongs to the genus Xysticus, a diverse group of ground-dwelling ambush predators commonly known as ground crab spiders. The species is distributed across North America, with confirmed records from the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. Like other members of its genus, it likely employs a sit-and-wait hunting strategy, using its enlarged front legs to capture prey.
