Distribution
Palaearctic. Described from Western Siberia (
Ostroverkhova 1979
) and later recorded only from southern Sweden (
Kurina et al. 2004
,
Kjaerandsen et al. 2007
). A record from Germany (
Plassmann and Schacht 2002
) is incorrect (
Kjaerandsen et al. 2007
). Here reported formally for the first time from Finland; the records presented here are from the hemiboreal, south boreal, north boreal and subarctic zones.
Ecology
In Finland collected from swamps, herb-rich forests and from a subarctic mountain birch forest. Immature stages are unknown.
Conservation
Included in the Finnish Red List (DD,
Penttinen et al. 2010
), but reported here formally as a new species for Finland.
