Distribution.

This species extends from Newfoundland (Lindroth 1955a: 146) to southeastern Alaska, including Kodiak Island (Lindroth 1968: 896), south to mountains in southeastern California (Lindroth 1968: 896; San Bernardino County, CNC) and New Mexico (Fall and Cockerell 1907: 162), northwestern Indiana (Blatchley 1910: 193), and southeastern West Virginia (Greenbrier County, CNC). The record from "North Carolina" (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 226) needs confirmation.
