Notes: Chernov (1953) mapped occurrences of Schedonorus pratensis in the Murman area (northwestern European Russia) but these are outside the Arctic. This region was the only one where Tzvelev (PAF proposal) indicated persistent occurrences. The species is, however, at least semi-established in southwestern Greenland (Pedersen 1972) and in the Arctic in Båtsfjord and Vardø in Norway.
