Distribution

Fennoscandian species, only known from Sweden ( Plassmann 1987, Kjaerandsen et al. 2007), Norway ( Gammelmo et al. 2010, Søli and Rindal 2012), Russian Karelia ( Humala and Polevoi 2009) and Murmansk Province ( Polevoi 2010). New for Finland. Wide range in Finland, known from the hemiboreal, north boreal and subarctic zones.

Ecology

All Finnish collecting sites are wetlands, in a wide sense. The species is apparently quite common on rich fens in central Lapland ( Kittilä) and it was very numerous on the shores of Lake Matalajärvi, Espoo (hemiboreal zone). Coelosia limpida may prefer calcareous habitats. Immature stages are unknown.

Conservation

Red-listed in Norway (DD, Anonymous 2010, Gammelmo et al. 2010).
