Figs 75, 82–83.

DISTRIBUTION. Western Europe, central and southern regions of European Russia southwards as far as the forest-steppe zone.

RECORDS. Reliably known from two localities in Moscow Oblast and from the environs of Khvalynsk, Saratov Oblast [ Tishechkin, 2021a].

REMARKS. N. guttulatus was described from Germany, but since its taxonomic status remained unclear for a long time, there is no reliable information about its distribution in Western Europe.
