I c e l a n d: Austurland: Sveitarfélagið Hornafjörður: Höfn env., 24.-28.VIII.2008, Chr. Reuter leg. (1 spcm., cWR). - Suðurland: Skaftárhreppur: Kirkjubaejarklaustur, Skafatel, 24.-28.VIII.2008, Chr. Reuter leg. (2 spcms., cREUT, cWR).

Widespread in the primarily northern part of the Palaearctic region, from France to E Siberia but hitherto not recorded from Iceland (CATPAL 1: FARKAČ & JANATA 2003: 83, VIGNA TAGLIANTI 2004). First record for Iceland, the species reaches here obviously the north-western limit of its range.
