It is found in the Russian Far East (Nzhnyaya Tunguska river, northern Yakutia, Kolyma river, Koryakia, Chukotka, Kamchatka, Stanovoi, Udokan) and Alaska. The species was first described by Grigory Grum-Grshimailo in 1900.[1]

This species was formerly a member of the genus Hyperborea, but was moved to Chelis along with the species of the genera Holoarctia and Neoarctia.[3][4]
