China (Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau).

Comments.

All known specimens of this species are female, and molecular barcoding data from all eight populations examined shows no differences (unpublished data). This indicates that the species may be parthenogenetic, a character that may allow it to easily disperse more broadly than gametogenetic species.
