Distribution. Siberian–Far Eastern, subboreal. Republic of Buryatia, Zabaikalsky Kray, Amurskaya Oblast, Jewish Autonomous Oblast, southern part of Khabarovsky Kray, Primorye. Outside Russia in N and NE China, N Korea.

Hostplants: unknown.

Remarks. In the recent article of Expósito-Hermosa & Viidalepp (2019) the authors erroneously reported “ Scopula butleri Prout, 1913 ” for the Russian Far East. The illustrated female and its genitalia (including the description) unambiguously belong to Scopula aequifasciata .
