Eremochrysa canadensis occurs in Canada, in British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec. All Canadian localities reported in literature have been authenticated. All specimens reported here are documented with data in Garland (1982 [1984]). Based on label data, adults come to light. In Canada, this species has an apparently disjunct distribution, which more collecting may resolve; in the eastern USA, it ranges from Wisconsin (Throne 1971) to Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire (Banks 1950), and south to Virginia (Roble and Flint 2001).
