More than 30 papers and posters were presented and much fruitful discussion occurred. An enjoyable field trip to the Colorado Rockies took place on Sunday, May 19th, and the weather was excellent. Boris was such a good host that it was difficult to leave, but many participants traveled to Santa Fe, New Mexico to attend the annual meetings of the North American Benthological Society. Bill Stark gave us a way to remember this meeting by producing a T-shirt with a unique “Spirit Fly” design. ANNOUNCEMENT 11th International Stonefly Symposium Stan Szczytko has planned and organized an excellent symposium that will be held at the Tree Haven Biological Station, University of Wisconsin in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, USA. The registration cost of $300 includes lodging, meals, field trip and a T- Shirt. This is a real bargain so hopefully many colleagues and friends will come and participate in the symposium August 17-20, 1992. Stan has promised good weather and good friends even though he will not guarantee that stonefly adults will be collected during the field trip. Printed August 1992 1 OBITUARIES RODNEY L.

    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.

Available online: http://www2.pms‐lj.si/illiesia/Illiesia03‐01.pdf PHENOLOGY AND DIVERSITY OF ADULT STONEFLIES (PLECOPTERA) OF A SMALL COASTAL STREAM, CALIFORNIA Richard L. Bottorff1 and Loren D. Bottorff 2 11963 Toppewetah Street, South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150, E‐mail: [email protected] 23265 Sandhurst Court, Cameron Park, CA 95682, E‐mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Collections of adult stoneflies over a full year at Irish Gulch Creek, Mendocino Co., California, revealed 23 species. Adults were present at all times of the year. Species number varied from an autumnal low of 2 to a spring peak of 13. Adults of most species were present for less than 3 months, but Malenka depressa adults were present year‐round. Hesperoperla hoguei was the only strictly autumnal‐emerging species. The report of Suwallia dubia from Irish Gulch Creek represents a new California record. The stonefly faunas of Irish Gulch Creek (low coastal) and Sagehen Creek (high Sierra Nevada) were compared. Both creeks had similar numbers of species, but the species composition differed greatly, reflecting dissimilar environments (elevation, water temperature, thermal accumulation, and discharge). Irish Gulch Creek had uniform warmer temperatures; Sagehen Creek had variable colder temperatures. Peak emergence at Irish Gulch Creek occurred 2 months earlier than at Sagehen Creek. Keywords: Plecoptera, seasonal flight period, biodiversity, thermal stability, North Coast bioregion INTRODUCTION we studied these aspects for a small stream on the As might be expected from its varied topography, north coast of California.

    Ohio Biological Survey Notes 1: 1-18, 1998. © Ohio Biological Survey Common Names of Stoneflies (Plecoptera) from the United States and Canada BILL P. S TARK1, KENNETH W. STEWART2, STANLEY W. SZCZYTKO3, AND RICHARD W. BAUMANN4 1 Dept. of Biology, Mississippi College, Clinton, MS 39058. 2 Dept. of Biological Sciences, Univ. of North Texas, Denton, TX 76203. 3 College of Natural Resources, Univ. of Wisconsin, Stevens Point, WI 54481. 4 Dept. of Zoology, Brigham Young Univ., Provo, UT 84602 Introduction Stoneflies are one of the important and often dominant orders of insects in North American stream ecosystems. They have remained generally poorly known to nonspecialists because of their cryptic habits, and often nocturnal activity. Larger species, or those that are colorful or important to flyfishers, have acquired regional or local names that vary from place to place. Names such as blacks, browns, greens, yellows, rollwings, needleflies, broadbacks, sallies, olives, stones, willowflies, or the generic names Acroneuria, Isoperla, Pteronarcys and others have become firmly established in fly fishing literature, and are used by flyfishers. The following list of recommended common names of Plecoptera species from the United States and Canada was originally formulated by us, acting as a subcommittee of the North American Benthological Society Scientific and Common Names Committee. This committee was charged with producing comprehensive species checklists of North American aquatic invertebrates, including insects with assigned common names. The first of the intended series of special publications by the American Fisheries Society of scientific and common names of U.S. aquatic invertebrates was of mollusks (Turgeon et al., 1988); the volumes on Insecta never followed.

Suborder Systellognatha (Filipalpia) Perlodidae Isogeninae Holarctic Perlodinae Holarctic Isoperlinae Holarctic Chloroperlidae Paraperlinae Nearctic Chloroperlinae Holarctic Perlidae Perlinae Old-world tropics, and the temperature regions of Africa, Eurasia and eastern North America Acroneuriinae North and South America; eastern and southeastern Asia 1 Contribution number 421 from the Department of Zoology, [ndiana University. 197 198 Indiana Academy of Science Tillyard places the ancestors of present day stoneflies in the family Lemmatophoridae of the Permian order Protoperlaria. These insects had small wing-like lateral expansions of the prothorax, and a fairly well- developed posterior (concave) median vein in both wings, both of which have been lost in modern stoneflies. Developments in some of the mor- phological features which have been most studied are as follows: Nymphal mouth parts: The holognathous families are characterized by bulky mandibles, by short thick palpi, and by having the paraglossae and glossae of the labium about equal in length. In the adult the man- dibles remain large and functional.

RESEARCH REPORT Summary Survey of Brachyptera putata (Newman) (Plecoptera, Taeniopterygidae) – a stonefly endemic to Scotland Research Report No. 1094 Project No: 016928 Contractor: Buglife – The Invertebrate Conservation Trust Year of publication: 2019 Keywords Northern February red stonefly; Brachyptera putata; stonefly; Cairngorms; Plecoptera; rivers Background The Northern February red stonefly (Brachyptera putata) is globally restricted to watercourses in the Scottish Highlands. Outside of Scotland, this species has only ever been found in two areas – the River Usk in Wales and the Wye near Hereford, where it is now thought to be extinct. As an endemic species, the UK population is of international significance. Surveys in the last 15 years have confirmed that the Northern February red is present in the Dee from Linn of Dee downstream, a number of Dee tributaries and along the River Spey.
