The genus Arsapnia was originally described in 1897, but was considered a synonym of Capnia. Arsapnia was re-established in 2014 by Murányi, et al., for eight species of Capnia.[2]

Species

These eight species, formerly members of Capnia, now belong to the genus Arsapnia:

  • Arsapnia arapahoe (Nelson & Kondratieff, 1988)
  • Arsapnia coyote (Nelson & Baumann, 1987)
  • Arsapnia decepta Banks, 1897
  • Arsapnia pileata (Jewett, 1966)
  • Arsapnia sequoia (Nelson & Baumann, 1987)
  • Arsapnia teresa (Claassen, 1924)
  • Arsapnia tumida (Claassen, 1924)
  • Arsapnia utahensis (Gaufin & Jewett, 1962)
gollark: Fewer eggs about maybe? Hard to say.
gollark: Using my patented ***ALGORITHM*** of basic statistics and wild guessing™.
gollark: That's basically what I said (the extra volume of halloween stuff mucks up the ratios).
gollark: Any opinions on my theory of what's going on with the pricing? Basically, I said that if extra dragons are introduced to the total but not the rest of the system (golds, whatever else), then rarer stuff's ratios will be affected more than common stuff, so the gold pricing goes crazy and nebulae stay the same.
gollark: 3.
