Gnaphosa borea is a ground spider species with Holarctic distribution. It is found in boreal forests in Russia (Tuva, South Siberia[1]), in the United States (Toolik Lake, Alaska,[2] Mount Katahdin, Baxter State Park, Maine[3]) and in Canada (Alberta,[4] Saskatchewan,[5] Yukon[6]).
This species appears to be dependent on some of the conditions associated with wildfires as it is absent or rarely collected in harvest-origin stands.[4]
