Distribution. Anthomyza pallida is widespread in the northern and temperate belts of the Palaearctic Region,

ranging from Great Britain to the Far East of Russia (Rඈ- IJගඹൾκ 2006, 2009). In the E. Palaearctic, there are records from Kirghizia and Russia (West and East Siberia, Far East) (RඈIJගඹൾκ 2006, 2009) and from China (Inner Mongolia, WൺඇǤ et al. 2021). The above records confirmed its occurrence in further areas of Siberia. In southern areas ( Italy, Kirghizia), the species seems to be restricted to montane ranges. This is also the case of the above first record from North Korea which is the southernmost in eastern Asia.
