Niphadobata lutescens (Lundström, 1908) and N. belgica (Becker, 1912) males (females could not be distinguished to species) were caught together by pitfall traps on a meadow 460 m above sealevel in the Solling during winter 1970/71, 71/72 and 73/74, respectively. At the same time pitfall trapping in old and young stands of beech and of spruce (390–500 m above sealevel) provided only N. lutescens with one exception. The distribution of both species which were hitherto not distinguished in most cases is discussed.
