C. vellerosus is generally known from the Chaco region of Bolivia (Cuéllar and Noss 2003, Noss et al. 2008), Paraguay and Argentina (Gardner 2005). A disjunct population occurs in eastern Buenos Aires Province, Argentina (Crespo 1974, Carlini and Vizcaíno 1987, Abba et al. 2007, Abba 2008, Abba and Cassini 2008).
