Epuraea truncatella has been recorded in Canada from British Columbia and the Yukon and Northwest Territories, east to Québec, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador (McNamara 1991; Majka and Cline 2006), and in the United States in Alaska California, Nevada, Colorado, and New Mexico, east to Indiana, West Virginia, Virginia, New Hampshire, and Maine (Parsons 1943; Chandler 2001). The species is found on the bark of recently dead pines (Pinus pp.) (Price and Young 2006). In Nova Scotia it was found at sap on trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx., Salicaceae), and under bark of fallen white pine (Pinus strobus L., Pinaceae) (Majka and Cline 2006).
