Distribution.

This species ranges from Newfoundland (Lindroth 1955a: 125) to Vancouver Island (Lindroth 1966: 588), north to southern Yukon Territory (Hyland River, UASM), south to west-central California (Lindroth 1966: 587), southwestern Arizona (Maricopa County, UASM), New Mexico (Fall and Cockerell 1907: 159; UASM), and mountains of New England (Lindroth 1966: 587). The record from “Connecticut” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 255) was based on a misidentified specimen of Agonum extensicolle (Krinsky and Oliver 2001: 5); that from “Massachusetts” (Bousquet and Larochelle 1993: 255) needs confirmation.
