Literature records.

Europe: Austria, France (Pyrenees, Corsica), Great Britain, Italy (Alps), Spain (Pyrenees, Cantabrians Mts), Slovenia ( Bonato et al. 2006).

Chorotype.

European.

Ecological notes.

No records; in northern Italy populations mostly inhabit submontane and montane woodlands, as the species has been recorded from 750 to 1650 m, in mixed broadleaved woodlands, in beechwoods and in Larix decidua and Pinus cembra woodlands ( Minelli and Iovane 1987, Zapparoli 1993); associated with deciduous woodland in Great Britain ( Barber 2009). The sole locality known in Corsica seems to fall in the Montane belt.

Remarks.

Only known from a female 17 mm long with 45 leg pairs from Vizzavona ( Léger and Duboscq 1903). The record is considered reliable by Bonato et al. (2006).
