G. alpinus is an European species whose distribution includes Austria , Bulgaria , Croatia , Denmark , European Russia , France (mainland, Corsica ), Germany , Greece (mainland, Crete), Hungary , Ireland , Italy (mainland, Sardinia, Sicily), Montenegro , Netherlands , Norway , Romania , Slovenia , Sweden , United Kingdom ; also recorded in Morocco and Tunisia (Zapparoli 2002; Simaiakis et al . 2005).
