Acanthia flavipes Fabricius, 1794: 68; Kulik, 1965: 411. A Euro-Siberian species. Distribution (Fig. 42, 1 ). Judging by the ZIN collection and the literature, the northern border of the species range extends in Russia along the line: Petrozavodsk–Shipitsyno on the Severnaya Dvina River– the Belaya River, a tributary of the Angara River–the Meun River, a tributary of the Nora River– Khabarovsk. In the European part of Russia, the species was recorded in Karelia (Gerd, 1946), Tver Province (Kolosov, 1915; Kuzmina, 1937), and Arkhangelsk, Pskov, Moscow, and Volgograd provinces (Cobben, 1985). In the Asian part, S. muelleri occurs southward of the permafrost zone and is indicated for Irkutsk Province (Kulik, 1965; Cobben, 1985). In Amurskaya Province, the species was first found by A.B. Ryvkin (Vinokurov, 2005b). Cobben (1985) recorded S. muelleri from Knyaze-Volkonskoe Vill. (50 km of Khabarovsk), having erroneously referred this locality to Primorskii Territory. According to the summarized data of Lukashuk (1997), the species is also known from Belarus, Latvia, and Estonia. Kiritshenko (1930b), Cobben (1985), and V.G. Putshkov and P.V. Putshkov (1996) recorded the species from Khmelnitskii, Volynsk, Kharkov, and Donetsk provinces of the Ukraine. Cobben (1985), based on the material from the ZIN collection (material has not been returned), indicated the species for Kazakhstan: Kokshetau Mt., 23.VI.1957 (Asanova), 1 ♀; Turgai, Mugodzhary, near Ber-Chochur, 8.VII.1932 (Luk’yanovich), 1 ♀.
