Cyclops scutifer Sars was found to be common in lakes in the Rangeley Lake area in Maine, and present in a few lakes in the northwestern corner of Connecticut. The species was found in deeper lakes in Connecticut than in Maine, which may be related to a dependence upon cold water, as in the warm season it occurs in cold, deeper layers of water.
