Distribution
Palaearctic, described from Kuril Islands (
Zaitzev 1994
). In Europe, according to Polevoi (
Polevoi 2013b
) found only in the northernmost areas of northwest Russia (Murmansk Region), Finland (subarctic zone,
Kilpisjaervi
) and Norway (Finnmark). Former records from Russian Karelia (
Jakovlev and Polevoi 1991
,
Jakovlev and Polevoi 1997
,
Polevoi 2000
,
Polevoi 2010
), Finland (
Jakovlev et al. 2006
) and Sweden (
Kjaerandsen et al. 2007
), in fact belong to the recently described
Boletina palmata
Polevoi, 2013. Here reported from the boreal forest zone, Savukoski (eastern Lapland).
Ecology
Immature stages are unknown. Adults have been collected around lotic waters in a subarctic fell area (Utsjoki) and the coniferous zone (Savukoski), and also from mountain birch forests in Finland and Murmansk region (
Polevoi 2013b
).
