Let $d\,>\,1$ be a square-free integer. Power residue criteria for the fundamental unit ${{\varepsilon }_{d}}$ of the real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ modulo a prime $p$ (for certain $d$ and $p$ ) are proved by means of class field theory. These results will then be interpreted as criteria for the solvability of the negative Pell equation ${{x}^{2}}\,-\,d{{p}^{2}}{{y}^{2}}\,=\,-1$ . The most important solvability criterion deals with all $d$ for which $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ has an elementary abelian 2-class group and $p\,\equiv \,5$ (mod 8) or $p\,\equiv \,9$ (mod 16).
