(2013a) reported it as tropicopolitan, very common in the tropics-subtropics of the old and new worlds. For Kotov et al. (2013b), B. deitersi is found in Afrotropical, Australasian, Nearctic, Neotropical, Oriental and Palaearctic regions. So, it is reported as not present in Pacific Ocean islands or Antarctic region.
