Holotype ♀, China, Shaanxi, Yan’an, 1975.VI.01, Feng Yuan (CAU). Distribution. China (Shaanxi). Remarks. Yang and Yang (1989) originally described this species based on a female specimen from Shaanxi, China. This species has many characters that are not congruent with those of Semachrysa: the head with spots on vertex, the antennae without stripes, the frons without spots, the thorax without spots, the terminal palpomere of maxillary and labial palpi not pointed, and the wings without brown shadings. This species also does not belong to the Ankylopterygini because of its small compound eyes and the extremely small spots on gena and the vertex. The previous characters are completely consistent with Chrysopa, which belongs to Chrysopini. Hence, we transfer this species to Chrysopa.
