Deposited material: 34: 18.v.–20.v.1918, 1 ò ( NHMW 26845), leg. Penther A. ( Beier 1928).

European distribution: Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Montenegro, Moldova, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Ukraine ( Henderickx 2005; Harvey 2013b).

Notes: Neobisium sylvaticum is distributed widely in Europe and has a wide range of habitat preferences. It occurs in soil, leaf litter, moss, tussocks and in compost heaps (e.g., Beier 1963; Drogla and Lippold 2004; Petrov 2004; Henderickx 2005; Zaragoza 2007). The species can be found in bird’s nests or under tree bark due to its ability to climb onto tree trunks, plants and shrubs ( Beier 1963; Turienzo et al. 2010). Beier (1928) mentioned the presence of the species in Albania, but with no particular habitat.
