Distribution

Palaearctic. The species was described from Japan ( Sasakawa and Kimura 1974) and has been later found on the Kuril Islands ( Zaitzev 1994). In Europe it has recently been reported only from the Fennoscandian region: Russian Karelia ( Polevoi 2000), Murmansk Province ( Polevoi 2010), Finland ( Jakovlev et al. 2006), Sweden ( Kjaerandsen et al. 2007) and Norway ( Gammelmo and Søli 2006, Søli and Rindal 2012). All Finnish findings are from the north boreal ( Sodankylä) and subarctic (Utsjoki) areas, however in Eastern Fennoscandia there are also records from the south boreal zone.

Ecology

The trapping site in Sodankylä is a headwater stream surrounded by coniferous forest. In NW Russia collected mainly in secondary deciduous and mixed forests but also in mountain scrub. Immature stages are unknown.
