Distribution
European. The species was described from Spitsbergen (
Holmgren 1869
) and has since been recorded in Europe from the Kola Peninsula in Russia (
Lundstroem
1914
, as
B. longicauda
,
Zaitzev 1994
), Sweden (
Kjaerandsen et al. 2007
) and Norway (
Soli
and Rindal 2012
), and also from Latvia, Germany and Austria (
Chandler 2004
) indicating an arctic to
boreal-mountainous
distribution. Only three records exist so far from Finland, from Muonio (
Lundstroem
1912b
, as
B. longicauda
, leg. R Frey 1911), Pelkosenniemi and Salla, all from the north boreal zone. New to the Republic of Karelia.
Ecology
The Karelian specimen was collected in
Vaccinium myrtillus
type sprucedominated forest. The Finnish specimen from Salla was collected from a stream valley surrounded by old-growth boreal forest. Immature stages are unknown.
