Global Range
H - >2,500,000 square km (greater than 1,000,000 square miles) - H - Hubendick (1951) lists the North American range of <i>Lymnaea palustris</i> (now recognized as <i>Stagnicola elodes</i> distinct from Eurasian forms) as occurring from western Newfoundland to Alaska with a likely isolated area of distribution in central Mexico and possibly northern Labrador. Burch (1989) cites New England west to Oregon and California, south to New Mexico; widely distributed in the Canadian Interior Basin. It also occurs south to central Mexico (Thompson, 2008).
