Distribution.

Being a Western-Central Siberian species, S. clavatipes appears to be very widespread in southwestern Siberia, Russia, inhabiting Tomsk, Novosibirsk, and Kemerovo areas, Altai Province, Republic of Altai, Republic of Khakassia, and also along the Yenisei River in the Krasnoyarsk Province, central Siberia, Russia.

Remarks.

The results of this study suggest that S. clavatipes prefers the southern slope, in spite of its highly ecological valence.
