European distribution: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Italy, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, former Yugoslavia ( Séguy 1944; Cooreman 1950; Rosický 1950; Niewiadomska 1953; Smit 1962; 1969; Weidner 1973; George 1974; Vashchonok 1996; Iori et al. 2003).
