GAPNIIDAE In my 1935rt paper on Illinois stone- flies, I presented a key for the separation of the jjjencra of Capniidae occurring in Illinois. This ke> included the genera Allocopnia and Capiiia. Under the dis- cussion of Se/no(dpIlia iiirfjliiia Banks in the present paper. I show that my ques- tionable record of a single Illinois speci- men of Capnia {vernalis Newport?), a female (1929 and 1935rt), belongs to the genus Kemocapuia and not to Capnia. However, in 1940, specimens of Capnia (ipis (Newman) were taken in northeast- ern Illinois, and it is desirable, therefore, to present a new key to the Illinois genera of Capniidae to replace the one of 1935rt. KEY TO ILLINOIS SPECIES OF CAPNIIDAE Adults 1. Eighth abdominal tergite of male with a raised process or tubercle-like struc- ture; wings sometimes absent or ab- breviated ; anal field or lobe of hind- wing, when wing is present, large and exteniling nearly out to tip of wing . Allocapnia, p. 265 Eighth abdominal tergite of male with- out a raised process or tubercle-like structure 2 2. Wings normally developed; radial vein near point of origin with radial sector straight; no oblique crossvein beyond end of subcosta in forewing; posterior margin of large, fiarkly sclerotized medial area (mesobasist
