(Figs 2 a-e) Leuctra prima is a widespread species in West and Middle Europe, abundant between 300-2000 meters above sea level (Kis 1974). The places of its occurrence in Hungary are 250-600 meters. The valleys of the creeks face different direction (north, southwest and south). L. prima was found in narrower, cooler parts of each of the five creeks bor­dered with beech and alder. The width of Nagy-völgyi and Tarjánka-patak [creek] were half meter and its depth was 1-2 centimeters, while the lower part of Ilona-patak [creek] was 2-3 meters wide. Current in the creeks varied from the runny, lotie section to slow­ly flowing, lentic parts. The bottoms of the creeks were mostly stony (volcanic or lime­stone) or sandy. L prima occurred on stony bottom, and disappeared, where the bottom was covered whit a thick layer of fallen leaves or mud. L. prima swarms from mid­February to end of April. Probably it is due to the early swarming that L. prima has not been found previously in Hungary. This year the first L. prima imagoes swarmed together with Capnia bifrons. The first L. prima specimens sat on stones covered with snow in sunny, warm weather. Swarming in large numbers occurred in the second half of March, when they were present in huge numbers all along the examined creeks, together with C. bifrons and Protonemura prae­cox in the Mátra and Bükk Mountains and with Leuctra pseudosignifera in the Zemplén Mountains. There were always more L. prima imagoes present than the previously men­tioned other species. Sometimes they were found far from the water, but they always stayed in the forest. Last swarming imagoes were flying together with Leuctra hippopus, Nemoura sciurus and Nemoura cambrica. There was no collecting site, where L. prima was the only Plecoptera species, although it occurred also in the not abundant sites of the creeks, where Gammarus species have replaced nearly all other species. L. prima is dis­tinguishable from other Leuctra species by its early swarming, although there were prob­lematic L, prima andL. pseudosignifera imagoes in the Zemplén Mts.
