Coelosia gracilis (Fig. 17) is here reported for the first time from the Palaearctic region. The species was described from the USA, California and Colorado ( Johannsen 1911 ) and according to Soli ( Soli 1997 ) the species has a wide range in the western part of the Nearctic region. Ecology Finnish sampling sites are headwater streams surrounded by boreal forests, a mountain birch forest and a rich spruce mire. Immature stages are unknown. Taxon discussion Coelosia gracilis is very close to the European species Coelosia truncata Lundstroem , 1909, and perhaps overlooked in the Palaearctic region.
