Diacheila arctica amoena (Faldermann). This subspecies is widely distributed over the arctic and subarctic regions of the Northern Hemisphere, ranging from Labrador to Kazakhstan, but populations seem to be highly localized. The German coleopterist Franz Faldermann found the adults of this taxon “pleasant” hence his scientific name amoena. The nominotypical subspecies ranges from the Nordic regions of Scandinavia to the Komi Republic in northern European Russia.
