Distribution:Holarctic ( Ozerov 2005).

Comments:Apparently the first record from Liechtenstein. Males exhibit strongly modified mid tarsomeres, which are used in courtship behaviour ( Puniamoorthy et al.2009). The species can be collected on cow pastures but is also common on horse dung (e.g.: Ang et al.2015).
