Distribution

Holarctic. Boletina groenlandica (Fig. 12) was described from Greenland, and displays a northwestern distribution in Europe, including Great Britain, Germany, Latvia, Norway, Sweden, Finland and northwest Russia ( Chandler 2004, Kjaerandsen 2012). British records are only from montane habitats in Scotland, mainly by streams above the tree line ( Falk and Chandler 2005). All former Finnish records are old (1911, leg. R Frey) and originate from NW Finnish Lapland ( Kittilä and Muonio, Lundström 1912b). Old records from NW Russia originate from Murmansk region (Kuzomen and Kandalaksha) and one recent record from Pasvik Nature Reserve ( Polevoi 2010). New Finnish records presented here are from the north boreal zone.

Ecology

New Finnish records are mainly from aapamires, including both poor and rich fens. Some of the specimens were taken from the vicinity of running water. Immature stages are unknown.
