Interesting thanks! The link says it can be fount all over Europe except for the northern part. I found it in Denmark. Also the one i found was quite sluggish compared to the video on the wiki page.

Mostly, when northern Europe is excluded, it means the really high north, as it has ~~arctic~~ subarctic climate. I've found it in Scania, so Denmark should be included as well.
