Remarks. Widely distributed Holarctic species (Růžička 2015), recently confirmed from Alaska, Yukon and Northwest Territories, but not from the rest of North America (Sikes et al. 2016). In central Europe, commonly found in forested habitats, most frequent in wet coniferous forests (Růžička 1994). In Turkey, reported from a single record in Adıyaman Province, belonging to the Eastern Anatolia Region (Fig. 33).
