Distribution in Canada and Alaska.

NT, BC, AB, SK, MB, ON, QC, NB, NS, NF ( Bousquet et al. 2013). Nearly all of the new records of Cis fucipes Mellié in NB were based on specimens captured in Lindgren funnel traps. This species is widespread (25 sites) and the most common ciid in the province, being captured in traps at nearly all sites and forest types where Lindgren traps were used.
