Distribution. Russia: Siberia (Tomskaya, Novosibirskaya and Kemerovskaya oblast, southern part of Krasnoyarsky Krai, Republic of Khakassia, Republic of Altai, Altaisky Krai).

Remarks. This species was originally described in Diplomaragna ( Shear 1990) , but later transferred to the genus Altajosoma ( Mikhaljova 2000) . In addition, a subspecies, Altajosoma bakurovi longiprocessum from Sayano- Shushenskiy Nature Reserve in Krasnoyarsky Krai, was described ( Mikhaljova 2000). Recently based on the type material of both subspecies, the existence of two independent species was established: Altajosoma bakurovi ( Shear 1990) and Altajosoma longiprocessum Mikhaljova, 2000 (see Nefediev 2019a).
