Remark. Finland , North European Territory of Russia and West Siberia listed for E. capucinus by Muona (2007) are excluded from the distributional range of this species, since all the previous citations of E. capucinus from these territories refer to E. zaitzevi Mamaev, 1976 (see Muona, 2019 ; Kovalev & Nikitsky, 2021 ). The citations of E. capucinus from Belarus , Latvia , and Lithuania needs confirmation as all of them may refer to E. zaitzevi , so these countries are listed with a question mark.
