We make full use of the regularity estimate and the characteristic of edge average interpolation operator of nonconforming Crouzeix- Raviart element, and prove a new and optimal error estimate in ｜｜ ｜｜o,δΩ for the eigenfunc- tion of linear conforming finite element and the nonconforming Crouzeix-Raviart element.
