(Fig. 49) occurs in central eastern Arizona and adjacent New Mexico in the United States, with the majority of examined specimens from Arizona near the Little Colorado River. A single specimen at the CNC from the Sierra Madre Oriental in northeastern Mexico indicates that it is much more widespread than suggested by the United States records. It is a seldom-collected moth but can be common when encountered.
