Distribution.
This European species is adventive in North America where it is known from Newfoundland (Larson and Langor 1982: 593) and Saint Pierre and Miquelon (Lindroth 1955a: 95) to the Saint Lawrence Valley in Quebec (Larochelle 1975: 42), south to Boston Harbor, Massachusetts (Davidson et al. 2011: 512). The first inventoried specimen collected on this continent was found in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia in 1929 (Fall 1934: 171). The record from the Similkameen Valley in British Columbia (Smith et al. 2004: 96) was based on a misidentified specimen of Amara carinata LeConte (personal observation).
