038087CCFF87FFEFFF55F892FE5FFE2F.taxon	etymology	Etymology: The specific epithet refers to the collector of type species.	en	Zhao, Meng-Yuan, Du, Yu-Zhou (2021): Two new species of Amphinemura (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Taiwan Province on the southeast coast of China.

038087CCFF87FFEFFF55F892FE5FFE2F.taxon	discussion	Remarks: The new species is similar to A. flavinotus Shimizu, 1997 in epiproct with a slight concave near the tip and ventral sclerite forming a median keel-shaped ridge with spines, but quite distinct from A. flavinotus and other known species on the connected median lobe and outer lobe of paraproct. The paraproct median lobe of A. reni broad basally, but narrowed from the median to the apex with a row of spines near the tip and the outer lobe strongly sclerotized, slightly broad and curved medially without apical spines, while in A. flavinotus the apex of median lobe round and blunt and the outer lobe extending upward with 2 or 3 spines at the tip. Additionally, the slender, darkly sclerotized lateral arm and blunt projection over the apex of epiproct in A. reni are also different from the triangular tip of keel in A. flavinotus.	en	Zhao, Meng-Yuan, Du, Yu-Zhou (2021): Two new species of Amphinemura (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Taiwan Province on the southeast coast of China.

038087CCFF84FFE8FF55FBEEFF45F967.taxon	description	Adult habitus: Head dark brown, antennae brown; cervical gills highly branched; pronotum dark brown, anterior margin wider than posterior margin. Wings subhyaline, veins brown. Legs brown (Fig. 6). Male: Forewing length 6.3 – 6.4 mm, hind wing 5.1 – 5.2 mm. Tergum 9 slightly sclerotized, with a large midanterior indention, and concaved at median of posterior margin, with several spines laterally. Tergum 10 sclerotized mostly, forming a membranous concavity below the epiproct, with few small spines laterally (Fig. 7 A). Hypoproct broad basally, tapering toward the rounded tip; vesicle slender, length 4 × width (Fig. 7 B). Paraproct divided into 3 lobes, inner lobe slightly sclerotized, simple; median lobe broad and sclerotized basally, connected with a membranous portion which with several spines each lateral and narrowed to the tip; outer lobe dark, triangular basally, narrowed medially, with 4 – 5 spines on the triangular tip (Fig. 7 B, D). Epiproct broad basally, tapering to the tip, dorsal sclerite membranous, with a notch apically; lateral arm sclerotized (Fig. 7 A, D); ventral sclerite forming a median keel-shaped ridge, broad basally, bearing a whole row of horn-shape spines ventrally (Fig. 7 C), tip of the keel reaching over dorsal sclerite forming a pair of small projections (Fig. 7 D). Cerci membranous, with setae. Female: Unknown.	en	Zhao, Meng-Yuan, Du, Yu-Zhou (2021): Two new species of Amphinemura (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Taiwan Province on the southeast coast of China.

038087CCFF84FFE8FF55FBEEFF45F967.taxon	etymology	Etymology: The Latin “ triquetra ” meaning triangular, refers to outer lobe of paraproct with triangular basal and tip.	en	Zhao, Meng-Yuan, Du, Yu-Zhou (2021): Two new species of Amphinemura (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Taiwan Province on the southeast coast of China. Zootaxa 4969 (3): 573-580, DOI: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4969.3.9
038087CCFF84FFE8FF55FBEEFF45F967.taxon	discussion	Remarks: The male of the new species seems related to A. flavicollis Klapálek, 1912. The two species share a similar epiproct, which is almost oval with a notch apically. However, the new species is quite distinct from A. flavicollis on ventral sclerite bearing a whole row of horn-shape spines and two small projections over dorsal sclerite, while the row of spines on ventral sclerite are less and small with only one short oblong projection apically in A. flavicollis. Comparing the paraprocts of the two species, it can be easily found that the median lobe of A. triquetra broad and sclerotized basally, connected with a membranous portion bearing several spines each lateral and narrowed to the tip, but A. flavicollis only bearing 6 – 7 long spines at the tip; while the outer lobe of A. triquetra darkly sclerotized with triangular basal and tip, bearing 4 – 5 apical spines, these features are absolutely absent in A. flavicollis.	en	Zhao, Meng-Yuan, Du, Yu-Zhou (2021): Two new species of Amphinemura (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Taiwan Province on the southeast coast of China.
