The nun moth is distributed throughout Europe, however a major damage is caused in Central Europe (Poland, Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, Romania, Byelorussia, etc.). Usually it occurs in lowlands. In highlands it is observed up to 700 m above sea level. Occasionally it may spread up to 1400 m above sea level. In Poland it occurs in Scots pine monocultures growing in poor site conditions.
