This Holarctic species is found from Great Britain to eastern Siberia and Japan (Marggi et al. 2003: 254), and from the Arctic Plains in northern Alaska to the Hudson Bay shore in northwestern Ontario, south to southeastern Minnesota (Olmsted Country, CMNH), north-central Utah (Casey 1918: 105, as Bembidion provoanum ), and northeastern California (Notman 1929b: 223, as Bembidion provoanum ).

Note.

Elaphrus sturmii , credited to Duftschmid (1812: 203), is usually listed as junior synonym of this species (e.g., Marggi et al. 2003: 254). However, it is quite evident that Duftschmid (1812: 203) referred to Carabus sturmii Panzer listed on the preceding page (page 202).
