Europe, N. Africa, W. Asia, Siberia. Euro-Sib. element. Widespread as an adventive in many other parts of the world. The various small species described as vicariads of this plant, as well as the numerous infraspecific taxa recorded from Turkey and elsewhere, need monographic treatment. Field studies are unattractive, but without such intimate contact, judgement on the critical segregates of this common nettle would be rash.
