Distribution.

The range of this species extends from Prince Edward Island (Majka et al. 2008: 130) and New Brunswick (Webster and Bousquet 2008: 16) to eastern Alaska (Lindroth 1969a: 1114), south to eastern Idaho (Clark County, UASM), southern Colorado (Wickham 1896c: 132; Maddison 1985: 95) along the Rocky Mountains, “Kansas” (Wickham 1896c: 132), Missouri (Summers 1873: 147), northwestern Indiana (Blatchley 1910: 69), and New York (Notman 1928: 214). One old specimen simply labeled “N.M.” is known (MCZ). The record from "New Jersey" (Wickham 1896c: 132) needs confirmation.
