World distribution: Palaearctic; widely distributed in Europe.
Remarks: Described from Norway and Sweden, but remaining type material consist of two specimens in poor condition, without terminalia. A. M. Hutson designated a male lectotype, now without terminalia (possibly on a separate slide). Further remaining material determined as B. bimaculata by Zetterstedt belongs to B. maculipennis and B. ingrica. Hence, the identity of B. bimaculata should primarily follow Hutson, Ackland & Kidd (1980).
