Diagnostic illustrations and SEM images are provided for the male and female of all species. The females of M. complicata and M. flinti are described for the first time and M. sierra Fields is placed as a synonym of M. stigmata. Keywords: Plecoptera, stonefly, Leuctridae, Megaleuctra, North America INTRODUCTION Leuctridae has not always been secure. Illies (1967), The genus Megaleuctra Neave was established on primarily on the basis of internal male reproductive the basis of four female specimens collected in the morphology and female ovipositor structure, placed Kootenay Lake area of southeastern British the genus in the subfamily Notonemourinae (at that Columbia, Canada by Neave (1934). The genus is time considered part of the Capniidae). However, considered one of the rarest of stonefly genera this position was not accepted by Nelson and (Jewett 1959, Baumann et al. 1977, Scudder 1994, Hanson (1973), who continued to treat it as a Stagliano and Maxell 2010) and is usually associated primitive member of Leuctridae, and (Zwick 2000), with spring seeps and rheocrenes of the Appalachian who stated “Transformations of the paraproct base Mountains, Pacific Northwest, and the northern confirm that the genus Megaleuctra...belongs to Rocky Mountains. Two fossil species are known: M. Leuctridae; it is not a notonemourid…” and he jewetti Lewis, from Miocene deposits of the Latah includes it in this family in his paper on family larval Formation near Juliaetta, Idaho (Lewis 1969), and M. characters Zwick (2006). Terry (2003) suggests that neavei Ricker, described from a Prussian Baltic Amber the inclusion of Megaleuctra in Leuctridae renders the specimen from the Lower Oligocene (Ricker 1935; family paraphyletic and advocates recognition of a Illies 1967).

    Overview and descriptions of fossil stoneflies (Plecoptera) in Baltic amber 85 Entomologie heute 22 (2010): 85-97 Overview and Descriptions of Fossil Stoneflies (Plecoptera) in Baltic Amber Übersicht und Beschreibungen von fossilen Steinfliegen (Plecoptera) im Baltischen Bernstein CELESTINE CARUSO & WILFRIED WICHARD Summary: Three new fossil species of stoneflies (Plecoptera: Nemouridae and Leuctridae) from Eocene Baltic amber are being described: Zealeuctra cornuta n. sp., Lednia zilli n. sp., and Podmosta attenuata n. sp.. Extant species of these three genera are found in Eastern Asia and in the Nearctic region. It is very probably that the genera must have been widely spread across the northern hemisphere in the Cretaceous period, before Europe was an archipelago in Eocene. The current state of knowledge about the seventeen Plecoptera species of Baltic amber is shortly presented. Due to discovered homonymies, the following nomenclatural corrections are proposed: Leuctra fusca Pictet, 1856 in Leuctra electrofusca Caruso & Wichard, 2010 and Nemoura affinis Berendt, 1856 in Nemoura electroaffinis Caruso & Wichard, 2010. Keywords: Fossil insects, fossil Plecoptera, Eocene, paleobiogeography Zusammenfassung: In dieser Arbeit werden drei neue fossile Steinfliegen-Arten (Plecoptera: Nemouridae und Leuctridae) des Baltischen Bernsteins beschrieben: Zealeuctra cornuta n. sp., Lednia zilli n. sp., Podmosta attenuata n. sp.. Rezente Arten der drei Gattungen sind in Ostasien und in der nearktischen Region nachgewiesen. Sehr wahrscheinlich breiteten sich die Gattungen in der Krei- dezeit über die nördliche Hemisphäre aus, noch bevor Europa im Eozän ein Archipel war. Der gegenwärtige Kenntnisstand über die siebzehn Plecoptera Arten des Baltischen Bernsteins wird kurz dargelegt. Wegen bestehender Homonymien werden folgende nomenklatorische Korrekturen vorgenommen: Leuctra fusca Pictet, 1856 in Leuctra electrofusca Caruso & Wichard, 2010 und Nemoura affinis Berendt, 1856 in Nemoura electroaffinis Caruso & Wichard, 2010.

    “Each square is unique and tells the story of incredible courage, faith, and generosity.” Dear Friends, Quilts are a visual testament to the compassionate nature of the human spirit. They are often created to serve a special purpose. Do- nate Life Northwest’s 2014 Threads of Life Quilt celebrates the lives of individuals who have been touched by donation and trans- plantation. Constructed from articles of clothing, blankets, cherished jewelry and heirlooms, each square is unique and tells the story of incredible courage, faith, and generosity. Threads of Life brings people together, to create personal tributes as well as enlist the help of others to complete the quilt and prepare it for exhibition. Threads of Life is more than layers of fabric stitched together, it is stories of mothers, fathers, children, siblings, friends, and neighbors. For donor family members recognizing the loss of their loved one, Threads of Life can ease the healing process while furthering a legacy and extending the impact of his or her precious gift. Transplant recipients celebrate their second chance and pay tribute to their donors for the treasured gift they have received. On behalf of Donate Life Northwest, we thank those who submitted squares, those who created the finished quilt and those who fur- ther the mission to save and enhance lives through the promotion of organ, eye and tissue donation.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).

They were an innovation as so little had been done by any state in the Union. The Oregon parks system owes its beginning to the thought of highway beautification advocated by many leaders of the state, including the Governors, the early State Highway Commissioners and Highway Engi- neers.
