This adventive, Palaearctic species is newly recorded in Québec and Canada as a whole, and in the state of Washington in the United States. In the Old World it is widely distributed in Europe and North Africa, east through Siberia, the Middle East and Central Asia to China, Korea, and India (Smetana 2004). In North America it has frequently been collected in caves and is considered a troglophile (Klimaszewski and Peck 1986).
