Olsen et al., 2018: 147 (in Canada collected from so-called muskeg bogs, nutrient-poor peatlands dominated by Sphagnum mosses (Salmela et al. 2014); in Finland from minerotrophic fens and, less often, springs and shores of streams and rivers (Salmela 2012a, Salmela et al. 2014); in north Norway collected at the lake-like broadening of the Gargiaelva river with sandy bed, broad vegetation zone with sedges (Carex spp.) and nearby woodland with birch [Betula], alder [Alnus] and willow [Salix] (see habitat photo from Ekrem et al. 2012); the period of flight is august-september).

Finland Taxonomy. Salmela, 2013: 38 (There are two sibling species close to Dicranomyia intricata in Finland. The other one is northern, most likely conspecific with D. suecica (Nielsen, 1953, at the present a synonym of D. intricata). This northern species is known from the provinces Obb, Lkor, Lkoc, Le and Li, occurring mainly in aapamires (JES-20110082, JES-20120082). The other species is only known from Oba, being collected around Baltic coastal meadows in Hailuoto and Oulunsalo (JES-20120094); this may be “true” D. intricata. Names proposed here are tentative because the type-material of either D. intricata or D. suecica is not yet studied. These species are separated based on differences in male hypopygia and COI sequences (J. Salmela & S. Vanhakylä in prep.) (See also Salmela et al., 2014). Revision.
