Both these Euro-Asian species are mainly distributed in northern Europe and have a strong ecological affi nity to groundwater-fed fens. With respect to the rarity, refugial character and high conservation value of central European populations of these species, we review in detail their ecological preferences and present European distribution, and also comment on the possible conservation implications for their globally threatened habitats.
