Remarks.
This is an east-Palaearctic species that is distributed from Eastern Europe, where is rather rare, through Siberia, including the northern regions of Kazakhstan, Mongolia and China, to Sakhalin and Japan (
Kurzawa 2012
,
Danilevsky 2018a
). While the larvae usually develop in freshly dead twigs and stems under bark, then in the wood of various deciduous plant species, mainly in
Betula
,
Acer
,
Quercus
,
Tilia
and
Ulmus
, it is also known from
Aralia
,
Vitis
,
Spiraea
,
Syringa
,
Euonymus
,
Daphne
and
Micromeles
(
Danilevskaya et al. 2009
). The adults are active from June to September (
Sama 2002
).
The
species was recorded from Kazakhstan for the first time by
Kostin (1973)
. Some specimens were also collected in the Putintsevo environs in June 2005 by
Danilevskaya et al. (2009)
.
Several imagines were collected on the flowers of
Apiaceae
in a mountain deciduous forest dominated by
Populus
and
Betula
(Fig. 15F). A single male was additionally lured into a red wine trap.
