Two new species of the stonefly genus Amphinemura (Insecta, Plecoptera, Nemouridae) from China.

ABSTRACT: Two new species of the genus Amphinemura Ris from China are described and illustrated, i.e. A. annulata Du & Ji, sp. n. from Zhejiang, Shanxi, Shaanxi and Guizhou Province, and A. lingulata Du & Wang, sp. n. from Shaanxi and Sichuan Province. A. annulata is similar to A. tricintusidens Wang & Zhu in having an apical cavity of the epiproct, but the epiproct ventral sclerite and the median paraproct lobe of the two species are different. A. lingulata is related to A. didyma Zhu & Yang in having the similar epiproct, but they differ mostly in paraproct median and outer lobes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of a stonefly species, Indonemoura auriformis (Plecoptera: Nemouridae).

Project description:One new mitochondrial genome of Indonemoura auriformis from the family Nemouridae (Insecta: Plecoptera) was sequenced in the study. The mitochondrial genome has the length of 15,718?bp, encoding 37 genes: 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The whole nucleotide composition biased adenine and thymine with A?+?T accounting for 69.9%. Nine PCGs and 14 tRNA genes are encoded in the J chain, the other four PCGs, eight tRNAs, and two rRNA genes are encoded in the chain of N. The mitochondrial genome includes 13 gene overlaps and 12 intergenic spacers. Most PCGs strictly use the ATN as start codon, and terminate with traditional stop codon (TAA and TAG). Except the tRNASer(AGN) seems to lack dihydrogen glycine arm, all tRNA genes of the mitochondrial genome are the typical clover secondary structure. The phylogenetic tree of PCGs dataset based on bayesian inference (BI) and maximum likelihood (ML) analysis show the same tree topology. Both ML and BI analysis support the sister-group relationship between Amphinemuria and Nemoura. Meanwhile, Capniidae is closely related to Taeniopterygidae.

New species and records of the stonefly genus Neoperla (Plecoptera, Perlidae) from Jinhuacha Nature Reserve, Guangxi of China.

Project description:Two new Neoperla species (Neoperla mesospina, Neoperla latispina) are described from the adult male stage from the Jinhuacha Nature Reserve, Guangxi of China. The new species are compared with similar taxa. Taxonomic remarks are also provided for N. transversprojecta Du & Sivec and N. yao Stark. The latter species is newly recorded for Guangxi.

Ecosystem Services, Global Diversity, and Rate of Stonefly Species Descriptions (Insecta: Plecoptera).

Project description:Stoneflies (Insecta: Plecoptera) provide ecosystem services as indicators of water quality, as food for predators, as mediators of energy flow and nutrient cycling, and through cultural services related to recreation and artistic creativity. The Plecoptera Species File (PSF) aggregates stonefly nomenclature, distribution, and literature to help society and scientists understand the value of services stoneflies provide. Using PSF data, we examined global and regional diversity, compared species description rates, and predicted future species description numbers through the year 2100. Through 2018, extant species totaled 3,718 with Temperate Asia having the greatest regional diversity at 1178 species. The Perlidae was the most species-rich of the 16 families at 1120 species. The recent global rate of species description was 43.6 species/yr, with Temperate Asia having the highest regional rate at 13.7 species/yr, followed by China and South America adding approximately 9.0 species/yr. We predicted that 1140 ± 130 new species would be described globally by 2050, and 2130 ± 330 by the year 2100, most of the increase occurring in China and South America. We discuss the possibility of reaching these predicted values.

Three new species of Illiesonemoura Baumann, 1975 (Plecoptera, Nemouridae) from China.

Project description:BackgroundThe genus Illiesonemoura Baumann, 1975 (Plecoptera, Nemouridae) is a small-sized stonefly with slender and curved embranous cerci. Currently, 18 species of the genus are known worldwide, mainly distributed in the Palaearctic and Oriental Regions, with a total of two species known to China.New informationThree new species of Illiesonemoura Baumann, 1975, I.bituberculata Wang & Du, sp. nov., I.motuoensis Du & Ji, sp. nov. and I.weii Du & Ji, sp. nov. are described and illustrated, based on male adults from China. Illiesonemourabituberculata is characterised by two pairs of tubercles arising posteromedially from tergum 10 and by two rows of spinules outlining the lateral edge of the ventral sclerite of the epiproct. Illiesonemouramotuoensis is characterised by the heart-shaped epiproct with a thin and slightly sclerotised protrusion between the sclerotised bands. Illiesonemouraweii is characterised by a pair of small knobs on tergum 10, outer lobes of paraprocts basally broad, then slender towards apices with a pointed tip and the epiproct with lateral spinules.

Perlesta ephelida, a new Nearctic stonefly species (Plecoptera, Perlidae).

Project description:A new Nearctic species of Perlidae (Insecta, Plecoptera), Perlesta ephelidasp. n., is described from the male, female, and egg stages. This species has been previously reported as, or confused with, Perlesta shubuta Stark from several central and eastern U.S. states. Perlesta ephelida is distinctive from Perlesta shubuta and other regional Nearctic congeners mainly according to male genitalic and egg characteristics. Perlesta ephelida is a widely-distributed eastern Nearctic species, whereas Perlesta shubuta appears to be restricted to a narrow latitudinal belt in the Gulf Coast region from Louisiana east conservatively to the Florida panhandle. The egg of Perlesta shubuta is depicted with scanning electron microscopy for the first time.
