Reported from: Styria (ST), Salzburg (SA), Upper Austria (OÖ), Lower Austria (NÖ) and Burgenland (BU). Records published by Franz (1989) are considered as dubious. Voucher specimens should be re-examined before the species can be added to the list. We consider it very likely that this species occurs in Austria , as this species is (also) distributed over the mountains of Central Europe ( Speight 2020 ).
