U. parryii is colonial and a conspicuous inhabitant of tundra, meadows, and boreal forests across large tracts of Canada, Alaska, and eastern Siberia. Although the subject of significant research in some parts of its geographic range, aspects of U. parryii biology remain understudied in others, a trend that further characterizes its representation in museum collections both spatially and temporally.
