As fully discussed in the last references quoted, this species 

 flies in the northern forests from the Atlantic Ocean to Alaska. 

 It avoids the open dry country, but extends southward in the 

 eastern wooded country as far at least as New Jersey. The 

 larvae are found in the early spring pools, generally of some 

 depth and containing vegetation.
