Description

Capnia nigra (Pictet 1833)

Pictet (1841) is reported to have received a somewhat aberrant specimen of C. nigra collected in the Taurus from the Vienna Museum. This old record can no longer be verified since the specimen under consideration is lost; but according to Zwick (1971) this record has nevertheless a certain probability. This supposed presence of C. nigra in Turkey is now confirmed by specimens collected in northern Anatolia.

Material examined. West Erzincan, East Refahiye, above Alacaatli Koyu, 38°54'E / 39°53'N, 14-V-97, 3♀ (Vinçon coll.).

Ecology. Eurytopic species occurring in various types of mountain and foothill water courses. The adults emerge in winter and spring.

Distribution. Eurasiatic. In the Anatolian Peninsula, it is reported from the Taurus (Pictet 1841) and the central Pontic Mountains. It also occurs in the Caucasus and Armenia (Fig. 12).
