Distribution

Palaearctic. In Europe recorded from the British Isles, Central and northern Europe ( Chandler 2004). In Fennoscandia recorded from Finland, Russian Karelia ( Lundström 1906) and Murmansk region ( Lundström 1909), also known from Denmark. Hitherto collected only from a few Finnish localities in southern ( Lundström 1906) and eastern Finland ( Polevoi 2001a).

Ecology

Reared from a tussock of Scirpus sylvaticus in Czech Republic ( Ševčík and Roháček 2008). The locality in Sodankylä, Kaita-aapa, is a large, open aapamire with intermediate rich vegetation. Scirpus sylvaticus was not present, but several other Cyperaceae species were abundant in the mire ( Carex spp., Trichophorum spp., Eriophorum spp.).
