Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   The genus Notiobiella is characterized by the green coloration of these "brown lacewings" and the typically rounded wing shape. The adults are all very similar and require genetalic dissection to distinguish the species. The genus is very widespread - Africa, Madagascar, South America, Asia, Australia, but only two species are known from South Africa.
