Global Range
F - 20,000-200,000 square km (about 8000-80,000 square miles) - F - From Coos Bay, Oregon, to British Columbia (up to Queen Charlotte Islands) (Forsyth, 2000). This species appears likely to occur along the entire coast of British Columbia since it was found in the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia (but only once). There are no records from elsewhere on the north and central coastal areas of British Columbia, but these areas have not been well surveyed for terrestrial molluscs (J. Forsyth, Royal British Columbia Museum, pers. comm., January 2006).
