whether it was a new species or not, although many things 

 pointed to its being so. As, however more material is to 

 hand, 1 $ from Natvand and 2 $ ? and 2 ç/V from Salt- 

 dalen, 1 have no hesitation in describing it as new. 



Capnia Sparre Schneideri is closely related to C. alra*) 

 in neuration, although the semicircular eggplate of the 

 female resembles that of C. nigra. The genital apparatus 

 of the male resembles that of C. alra and C. affinis. The 

 seventh dorsal segment of the male has an elevated some- 

 what rounded prominence, that is furnished with short 

 black hairs. Head broader than thorax. Thorax almost 

 as broad as long. Legs, antennæ, head and thorax brownish 

 black. Cerci brownish black, lighter towards the apex. Wings 

 with yellowish brown veins, which are more pronounced 

 in the female than male, and faintly tinged with greyish- 

 brown. Length a* 5 mm.; Ç 6—7 mm. Expanse of wings 

 o* 10 mm.: ? 13—14 mm. 



The material, mentioned above, is collected by Mr. 

 Sparre Schneider.
