Discussion. The species was described from one female from Novaya Zemlya by Holmgren (1883) and later described again based on some males and females from Greenland as Sciara glacialis (Lundbeck 1898) and from Spitsbergen as Sciara permutata (Lundbeck 1900). The species was redescribed with a list of literature, synonyms and combinations by Menzel & Mohrig (2000). Trichocoelina vitticollis (Holmgren) can be distinguished from all other species of the genus by its very large, setose intergonocoxal lobe of hypopygium and in having the gonostylus with a group of slender, oblique medial megasetae.
