Nabis flavomarginatus is a species of damsel bug in the family Nabidae.[1]
This species has a Holarctic distribution. In Europe it is found in the North and East but it is largely missing in the South West and South. In the East the distribution extends over the Palearctic to Siberia and Central Asia and the North of China, Japan and Korea. In the Nearctic realm, it is common in Alaska, Canada and Greenland. In 1989 it was found for the first time in the continental body of the United States (Maine). In Greenland, it is the only species in the family Nabidae conspicuously on the former settlement area of the Vikings (their introduction through this in the early Middle Ages is speculated about).
In Western and Central Europe N. flavomaculatus is boreomontane. It rises in the Alps to 2200 meters above sea level.[2][3]
