Examined material: Recorded once: Zelenogradsk district , 3 km N Kaliningrad, 54°47´22.9´´N 20°26´48.8´´E, 2.V.2010 (1 ex., un- der bark of dead oak at the margin of clearing in the mixed forest, leg. V. Alekseev) .

Comments: According to the catalogue of Silfverberg (2004), this rare and locally distributed species has been recorded from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Lithuania. It is noted for West Belarus too ( Alexandrovitch et al. 1996). On the territory of the former Eastern Prussia the species was cited from the present-day northern Poland only ( Bercio & Folwaczny 1979). This more southern as C. filiforme F. species occurs in the Kaliningrad region and in Lithuania at the east-northern border of its range.
