A single male was collected by sweeping, June 05, 2012, Russia, Kaluga region, Maloyaroslavets district, env. of Rodinka station. This species was described by Bezzi from 1 male from Trentino, the Italian Tirol. According to Chandler, 2001 it remains the only known European specimen. Seems to be pretty abundant in the Russian Far East, though. So if not the second European specimen, it's an extremely rare species in Europe.

While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
