Джунгарский Алатау
In the area of the former Soviet Union, there were findings in the Ukrainian Carpathians and Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, in the Georgian Gagra, Armenian Ander and Turkmenistan. There are unspecified findings in the northern Caucasus, the Russian Black Sea coast and the Urals. Kazakhstan had three collections in the East Kazakhstan Province, the Trans-Ili Alatau and the Dzungarian Alatau. The easternmost find comes from Vyazemsky. In the interglacial periods of the Pleistocene the habitat reached the areas of today's continental-temperate climates, as was validated by a fossil find in Thuringia from the Eemian. There were also fossil finds in the French Clairvaux-les-Lacs from the Chalcolithic.
