identified M'ith any 

 of the 3 known Eu- 

 ropean species. As 

 to the shape of the 

 eggplate the speci- 

 men to some de- 

 gree resembles Cap- 

 nia vidua, Klapâlek 

 (Bull. I'Acad. Seien. 

 de Bohême 1906). 

 The wings (fig. 1) 

 are subhyaline, with 



fuscous nervation. 

 Length of fore wing 

 5,5 mm. Thorax (lig. 

 4 b) as long as broad. 

 Head and antennæ 

 blackish. Joints of 

 the setæ (fig. 5 c) short as by C. atm (fig. 5 a). The to- 

 tal length of the body 7 mm. 

 The eggplate (fig. 3 d) semicir- 

 cular. 



As there is only one speci- 

 men, I do not wish to point it 

 out as a ncAv species; but if it, 

 when later on more specimens 

 can be taken under consideration, 

 should prove to be a good species 

 I should propose the name Spanne 

 Schneiden, dedicating the species 

 toMr. Sparre Schneider, who 

 has for many years been eagerly Fig- 3. Eggplates of cm-
