This very large species was first described from Korea (Zwick 1973 a) but occurs also in the Russian Far East (Zhiltzova 2003). Female. The male genitalia are very different from other Korean Amphinemura, and so are the female genital sclerites. In dorsal view of a cleared specimen (Fig. 1) one notices a large, strongly sclerotized pouch about as long as wide, with parabolic front margin and an acute, rearward pointing muscle attachment on the side. The dorsal face is anteriorly covered by a large collar-like shield with crenulate margin. The shield includes a heart-shaped anterior membranous area with delicate funnel-shaped folds to which the bases of the two receptacles are attached. In the centre of the rear half appear two strong sclerotized folds which converge and form a Y-shaped pattern.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C133E1364FEE6FDF4FDB80042.taxon	discussion	Amphinemura males present an amazing diversity of bizarre secondary genital characters and species distinction is not normally a problem, even among close relatives. However, females are often externally rather similar. It is therefore suggested to illustrate the internal female genital sclerites whenever possible. Their examination will not be practical in routine identifications but may provide important help in critical distinctions, for example when new regional records are to be based on only females. The present study provides sketches of sclerotized vaginal structures for diagnostic purposes only. The attachment of the two hyaline seminal receptacles typical of the family lies on top and is easily seen while the unpaired oviduct lies ventrally and is rarely noticed under the folded and partly sclerotized copulatory pouch (Zwick 1973 c). A full understanding of structural details and how particular folds interconnect would require special study and was not attempted.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

Another species originally described from Korea (Zwick 1973 a) that extends into the South of the Russian Far East (Zhiltzova 2003). The female genital region is generally similar to the next two species. Unfortunately, the Museum Budapest which houses the types no longer issues loans. The female syntypes could therefore not be examined for their inner genital sclerites. The present females are assigned to A. steinmanni for their obliquely truncate lobes of the subgenital plate and the rufus centre of head.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C133D1361FC32FC1AFAC3009E.taxon	description	Adult habitus. A small, pale brown Amphinemura, no pattern. FWL (= fore wing length) 6.6 - 7.5 mm. The pronotal surface is rough and densely covered with circular little grooves from each of which rises a tiny hair. Distinguished from congeners by the characteristic male and female genitalia. Male. T 9 with medially interrupted fringe of strong, inwardly curved setae. S 9: A slender almost parallelsided tongue-shaped vesicle originates in the middle of the basal sclerite strip. Caudal part of segment divided, the middle portion forms a subparallel subgenital plate that is longer than the sides of the segment and ends in a narrow tongue-shaped extension basally delimited by some transverse folds. T 10 laterally short, its middle forms a posteriorly directed sclerite plate with a heart-shaped anteromedian paler area overlain by the epiproct which originates at the caudal end of the plate (Fig. 3). S 10 reduced, its place occupied by the broad base of the paraprocts. Cerci simple, one-segmented, inserted dorsolaterally in a curved notch of T 10. Terminal wart inconspicuous. Paraprocts of complex shape. In ventral view (Fig. 4), the triangular inner epiproct lobe with a sharply pointed straight sclerite along its medial edge is seen by the side of the subgenital plate tip. The middle lobe is membraneous and basally bare. On its outside it is connected to the outer lobe. The outer lobe is a narrow sclerite strip that bends outward at right angle at its base and is then gently curved mediad. In side view (Fig. 5), the sclerite band curves dorsad and forks almost like a T. The dorsal face and the caudal end of the forked sclerite are beset with many black spines. The posterior branch of the sclerite curves down, the anterior branch is straight, in dorsal view its blunt end lies between the hairy cercus and the hairy dorsal part of the middle paraproct lobe. In side view of the epiproct (Fig. 6) the dorsal contour is regularly convex. The ventral paramedian spine-bearing sclerites are basally and apically partly concealed by the overhanging membrane of the dorsal side. The spinose section is deeply downcurved and bears around 10 short, stout black spines. The lateral sclerite of the epiproct forks in the anterior third. The dorsal branch is a delicate strip while the ventral branch is strong and forms a large hook which stands free from the rest and curves back, and mediad. In dorsal view (Fig. 7) this hook is seen by transparency. In dorsal view the epiproct (Fig. 7) is pear-shaped. It narrows in a gently concave line from the wide parabolic caudal part to the gently bilobed tip which is less than half as wide as the base. A small anterior tube is largely concealed between the lobes. The surface is smooth, with a median furrow in the anterior half. The furrow is occupied by a narrow slender sclerite which anteriorly leads to a very short and inconspicuous dorsally open semi-tube. Ventral sclerites visible by transparency as dark shadows. Female. S 8 with a distinct pregenital plate bulging backward over S 9. Subgenital plate on S 9 flat, consisting of two transversely truncate lobes (Fig. 8: S) caudally separated for a short distance by a narrow well defined notch. On the sides the flat lobes of the paragenital plates (Fig. 8: P) project distinctly. Dark sclerotized structures inside segments 8 & 9 are visible by transparency. Inner sclerites are best studied from the dorsal side. A wide sclerotized area is anteriorly delimited by converging uprolled edges. Between them, in front of the narrow notch in the subgenital plate lie ventrally two black, erect closely adjacent crests. Dorsally and laterally from them are two sclerites resembling narrow leaves that diverge anteriorly, like a funnel. Anterolaterally the funnel supports two anteriorly open hemispheres which in turn support a parabolic sclerite above them. Over this rises anteriorly an approximately heart-shaped shield with two slender fingers caudally and anteriorly at the top a straight sclerotized tube which leads into the membraneous spermatheca. This tube and the little tube at the tip of the male epiproct (Fig. 7) are of similar diameter.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C133D1361FC32FC1AFAC3009E.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Several Korean Amphinemura have rough pronota. Among them is A. steinmanni, which also has huge ventral teeth on the epiproct. However, both the T-shaped outer paraproct lobes with their caudally projecting setal fringe, and the pear-shaped epiproct of A. denstigris are distinctive and very different from A. steinmanni. The tooth-like appendage to the lower face of epiproct relates A. denstigris also to A. rai but the distinction is again easy, see below under A. rai. This small group of species may be related to Far-Eastern Amphinemura species possessing large extensions spreading laterally from the antero-ventral area of the epiproct, like A. pterygoidea Li & Yang, 2008. In China, there are additional species with remarkable anterolateral projections from the epiproct but details of interconnections between sclerites are undescribed. The female resembles the female of A. steinmanni but the subgenital plate lobes of the latter are obliquely truncate (Zwick 1973 a: figs. 10, 11). The vaginal sclerites have some similariry with A. rai (see below), but in many species these structures are as yet undescribed.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

Generally similar to A. denstigris. S 9 is a slender subgenital plate with a narrow, apically widened, ventrally soft, whitish ventral lobe (Fig. 9). The narrow tip of the plate curves up. The cerci are short, almost globular, membraneous and hairless on the medial face. The inner paraproct lobe is conical, more strongly sclerotized and blade-like along its medial edge which is largely concealed beneath the tip of the subgenital plate. The middle lobe is supported by a narrow sclerite strip extending first backward and then forward and up. Along its upper and rear face the apex of the lobe has a dense fringe of black bristles (Fig. 10). The outer paraproct lobe forms an acutely pointed sclerite whose tip lies across the loop of the sclerite strip of the middle lobe. The epiproct (Figs. 11 - 13) is distinguished by a wide, flat sclerotized lateral flange in the anterior half. At the tip, the flange is connected to the base of a blackish sinuous appendage with prickly surface. The pointed tip of the appendage is free from the main body of epiproct but lies close to it. A little apical tube concealed between the lateral lobes of the epiproct is best seen in slide mounts. Female. The few females taken together with the males agree with figure 1 E of Ham & Lee (1999). The lobes of the subgenital plate are caudally sinuous, the outer part a little longer than the inner. The inner genital sclerites (Fig. 14) are attached to the medial margin of the largely concealed paragenital plates and consist of a series of sclerotized areas separated by folds 1. Together, the plates form an arch supporting anteriorly a transverse little shield with two short caudal fingers. A sclerotized central tube leads to the primary genital organs. Diagnosis. An obvious relative of A. steinmanni and A. denstigris with similar anterolateral appendages to the lower face of epiproct. However, in the related species the appendages diverge strongly from the body of the epiproct while in A. rai they lie close to it. The paraprocts of the three related species differ also strikingly. The inner genital sclerites of female A. denstigris agree in the funnel-shaped structure with central tube and two caudal fingers. However, the sclerites lining the copulatory pouch differ greatly, which was to be expected in view of the different shapes of epiprocts. Notes. The new material resembled illustrations in the original description. However, these do not show the ventrolateral appendages and the apical tube of the epiproct. Apparently depending on activity and condition of specimens at the moment of preservation the dark lateral flanges of the epiproct may diverge a little (like in the present figures), or be parallel to each other. Width of the epiproct differs accordingly, the little apical tube being more or less exposed or concealed. There may also be some individual variation in this common species (Dr. Ham in a letter). The initially tentative identifications was confirmed by comparison with two authentic specimens donated by Dr. Ham.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C13391362FB99FA65FE1E0735.taxon	discussion	The Korean species of Nemoura belong to several different groups. Males of some, especially N. despinosa and N. geei, are readily identified from the excellent illustrations in synopses of the Russian fauna (Zhiltzova 2003, Teslenko & Zhiltzova 2009). Several new species were discovered in a group including also Arctic or circumpolar species (for example, N. arctica Esben Petersen, N. sahlbergi Morton, N. viki Lillehammer, N. trispinosa Claassen). Because of resemblances in shape of paraprocts and cerci structural details of the epiproct are particularly important but were so far not described in all. The caudal view of the cercus apex provides useful supplementary information to separate the species. It should be remembered that in species whose apical epiproct sclerite is semi-erect and oriented essentially in the sagittal plane the sclerite may look very different, depending on the degree of flattening in microscope preparations. Most females in this group can at best be identified tentatively. Females definitely associated with males of the new species are not available. Females in the studied collection remain unidentified and are not recorded.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C13381362FCD6FEBDFADF003D.taxon	discussion	Status of the taxon. At the time of description of the only specimen ever recorded, similarity in the narrow conical epiproct tip suggested conspecificity with N. sahlbergi Morton, 1896. Because the cerci differed (in particular, the Korean specimen lacked the anteriorly directed dorsal point present in typical N. sahlbergi) the specimen was described as a subspecies of N. sahlbergi. The latter was never recorded from the Far East and I am now convinced the Korean specimen belonged to some other species.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C13381362FCD6FEBDFADF003D.taxon	description	In the meantime, several new species with epiprocts superficially resembling N. sahlbergi were named from the area. I cannot reliably identify them from the cerci alone. To decide if N. sahlbergi problematica is identical with one of these recently named species a reexamination of the epiproct is indispensible. Unfortunately, the microscope preparation cannot be found in the museum and appears to be lost. Dr. D. Muranyi was extremely helpful and re-examined and drew the holotype, but the identity of the taxon remains unresolved. N. sahlbergi problematica renders justice to its name: I regard it as a nomen dubium.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C1335136EFEECF9BFFCAB01DF.taxon	description	Adult habitus. A normal-looking Nemoura without pattern or other distinctive traits, except the genitalia. The present males are fully pigmented, with black head and pronotum. The slightly infuscate fore wings are 7.2 - 7.9 mm long. Male. The paraproct is apically deeply excised, ending in two sclerotized acute tips. The slender cerci are in dorsoventral views almost straight, with a large membraneous apex (Figs. 20, 21). In side view (Fig. 22) the slender distal part stands at an angle to the wide base. The outer apical spine is double, the median one single, a little upcurved. In caudal view of the cercus tip, the sclerotized cap is almost horizontally placed over the pale unsclerotized end of cercus with the inconspicuous terminal wart (Fig. 23). The epiproct is elongate oval (Fig. 24). Its looped sclerite joins the longitudinal spine-bearing sclerite at a right angle. The wide apical sclerite (Fig. 25) lies almost flat in the frontal plane and does not change appearance when slide-mounted. It has a blunt nose on the outside. The anterior edge bears coarse scales and is rough. On the ventral face of the apical sclerite are 2 - 3 strong outwardly directed spines. The ventral longitudinal sclerites bear several spines, the first points forward, the other backward, as usual. Female. Not known.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East. Illiesia 6 (9): 75-97, DOI: http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4759703

However, the illustration of the holotype shows a short and wide ventral sclerite with only six stout spines. V. A. Teslenko kindly provided microphotographs of the epiproct of an additional specimen. Nemoura ussuriensis is distinct from the present species. On the other hand, from the description N. espera Ham & Lee, 1999 is very similar to N. ussuriensis and possibly its junior synonym.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C13341368FC52FB88FD820773.taxon	description	Adult habitus. The teneral specimens are typical of genus Nemoura and possess no distinctive traits, apart from the genitalia. The front wing is 7.2 mm long. Male. Subgenital plate normal, with slender ventral vesicle and short pointed tip resting between the paraprocts. Paraproct transverse, short, apex bifid. The short medial lobe is narrow and separated from the broad external lobe by an angular notch (Fig. 32). Cercus in lateral view (Fig. 34) basally straight, apically regularly downcurved, sclerotization ending in two widely separate short points. Medially from them appears the large bulbous setose apex which is membraneous. In ventral view (Fig. 32) the cercus gently tapers from the base to a neck-like section supporting the large apex resembling a bird head. The caudal end of the dorsal sclerite and the outer point together appear as a narrow caudal edge. In dorsal view (Fig. 33) appears an indistinct mediocaudal point, in addition to the two lateral points. In caudal view (Fig. 35) the sclerite forms a flat cap over the cercus tip and both the mediocaudal point and the external caudal point are seen. The epiproct is oval, a little restricted anteriorly from midlength (Fig. 36). The narrow ventral sclerite bears about 10 slender spines. The rod-like apical sclerite extends forward but does not reach beyond the general contour of the epiproct. The sclerite's apex is rough, basally from it the tips of two outwardly directed straight spines are exposed. Apical sclerite and looped sclerite stand at a right angle to each other and are connected in a regular curve. The looped sclerite forms an oval ring. Female.

03E6653C1332136BFEC2FA9FFF520386.taxon	description	Adult habitus. A typical slender Paraleuctra of the occidentalis-group. FWL male, 2.7 - 2.8 mm, female, 3.1 mm. Male. T 9 caudally slightly raised. Flat hairy ventral lobe on S 9 almost circular in ventral view (Fig. 38). S 9 forms a subgenital plate with deep and wide Ushaped caudal notch. T 10 with recessed antecosta and a median furrow that ends caudally in a deep bracket-shaped notch separating two lobes, each about 1 / 3 segment width, distally rounded. Epiproct a simple strongly upcurved sharp hook. Cercus slender, with dorsal bulge, tip distinctly emarginate, the rudimentary 2 nd segment located in the middle of a notch separating two unequal teeth (Fig. 38). The dorsal tooth is larger and directed dorso-caudad, the ventral tooth points ventrad. In caudal view, the inner edge of cercus appears straight, and both apical teeth point mediad. In lateral view, the U-shaped base of the subanal probe is by transparency seen inside segment 9. The slender exposed part curves up regularly between the lobes of S 9. The posterior face of the probe ends in a membraneous semicircular caudal projection and anteriorly in an elongate swelling extending further basad than the other structure (Fig. 38). In caudal view of the probe tip (Fig. 39), the dark lateral sclerites form a narrowly parabolic loop surrounding the rearward pointing membraneous part. The anterior membraneous part is rhomboid. The membraneous scaly parts at the probe tip are covered with numerous small downwardly pointing spicules.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C1332136BFEC2FA9FFF520386.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Paraleuctra malaisei belongs to the occidentalis-species-group as defined by Stark & Kyzar (2001). By the slender but apically notched male cercus, the American P. occidentalis, P. jewetti, P. alta, and P. projecta are more similar to P. malaisei than the Asian members of the group which have only a medially bent nipple-like apex of male cercus (Shimizu 2000, Zhiltzova 2003, Li et al. 2010). By the shape of the subanal probe (which is the copulatory organ) P. malaisei differs clearly from all American (see figures in Baumann et al. 1977, Baumann & Stark 2009) and Asian species (Shimizu 2000, Li et al. 2010). The two Asian mainland species of the group differ strongly. In Zhiltzova's (2003) excellent figures the apex of the subanal probe of P. okamotoa is concealed in lateral view and is therefore shown here (Figs. 40, 41).	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

Lateral margins of lobes of subgenital female plate truncated obliquely, basal part of subgenital plate transfers to distal part without distinct projection ................................ araleuctra zapekinae - ... Lateral margins of lobes of subgenital female plate are parallel, basal part of subgenital plate narrow, separated from wide distal part by distinct projection ......................... Paraleuctra cercia A sample I took near Sidima, Khabarovski Territory, Russian Far East, in June 1998 includes the nicely distinct males of both species. Of the 6 females, 4 have a smooth subgenital plate as published in the literature. However. one female resembles the Korean specimens (Figs. 42 - 43) and the last specimen is intermediate.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C13301374FED3F940FED80735.taxon	description	Adult habitus. A typical dark leuctrid with strongly infuscate wings. FWL 6.5 mm. The male abdominal tip distinguishes it from other members of the family and evidences its membership in genus Despaxia. Male. Tergites 3 - 9 with black, strongly sclerotized antecosta, remainder lightly sclerotized. Anterior tergites possess 4 indistinct darker spots in a transverse row. T 9 caudally deeply excised, medially remains no more than the very strong antecosta. Laterally the antecosta divides to form the sclerotized anterior and posterior edges of the lateral portion of the segment. T 10 is medially no more than a narrow sclerite to which the cerci and the epiproct are attached (Fig. 44). The epiproct is a transverse finely pilose sclerite with short stalk. Cerci straight, with small ventrocaudal notch, the wart-like second segment is located on top of the lobe, beneath the notch. Middle of S 9 caudally arched, forming a slightly projecting subgenital plate with some long setae. Laterally (Fig. 46) the subgenital plate is demarcated by short folds originating in narrow caudo-lateral notches. No ventral lobe. Middle of segment 10 medially occupied by the wide paraprocts. In ventral view (Fig. 45) they form two paramedian weekly sclerotized triangles concealing the bases of the strongly outwardly curved specilla whose inner tube is faintly visible by transparency. More caudally the specilla converge again, their ends lie parallel to each other. The specilla enclose an approximately heart-shaped open space between them. The specillum tip is pointed, with a faint subterminal swelling. In dorso-caudal view the curved sperm tubes inside the paraprocts are seen to turn towards the midline but remain narrowly separated. Anteriorly from the outwardly curved base of specillum the lateral part of paraproct forms a simple flat plate. In lateral view the specilla curve away from the body and are distally straight. Near the base appears a little swelling over the sperm duct. Female. Unknown.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C13301374FED3F940FED80735.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The only other species in the genus is the west-Nearctic D. augusta (Banks) which was compared. The general similarity of the two species is striking, compare Figs. 44 - 46 to figures 3 and 4 of Kondratieff & Lechleitner (2002). However, the basally divergent and widely separate specilla formed by the inner paraproct lobes distinguish the new species immediately from D. augusta where the same lobes are parallel and lie close together over their entire length. D. augusta has an unsclerotized ventrocaudal edge of cercus carrying the rudimentary 2 nd segment but there is no notch. In D. augusta, the antecosta of T 8 is medially distinctly recessed, and the epiproct has a faint midline.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C132D1376FECFFD39FBBA0772.taxon	description	Submental gill a short slender cone, gill on lower front corner of pronotum also small. The curved downhanging lateral single gills at the front of meso-and metathorax are larger, about as long as in M. ochracea, but not as thick. Male. Not known. Female. The yellow S 8 forms a rounded slightly convex subgenital plate ending in two long lobes extending over half of S 9 (Fig. 48). The medial gap separating the lobes is anteriorly heart-shaped, caudally approximately parallel. At the level of the S 9 hind margin each lobe is on the outside constricted and then strongly expanded so that a prominent lateral lobe is formed from where the convex contour curves regularly towards the median gap. Egg. Large, 400 µm long. Quadrilateral with flat opercular area, in side view (Fig. 49) resembling a cube to one side of which is attached a short pyramid supporting the collar. Each side of the cube and of the pyramid is distinctly concave. In oblique views (Fig. 51), the egg therefore appears to be of some irregular shape. The collar appears double, the shorter outer and the longer and narrower inner ring both ending in a number of pearls or short fingers (Fig. 50). Chorion with hexagonal follicle cell impressions. The limits between cells are corrugated and a bit raised, at high magnifications the egg contour appears rough. Opercular line, micropyles, and anchor not observed.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.

03E6653C132D1376FECFFD39FBBA0772.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The subgenital plate with its large lobes resembles M. magnilobus Zhiltzova, 1988 from the Russian Far East, the west-nearctic M. signata (Hagen, 1874), and Sopkalia yamadae (Okamoto, 1917) from Japan. In S. yamadae (which was compared) the gap separating the lobes of the subgenital plate is also heart-shaped but is wider. None of the similar species possesses outwardly directed angles at the base of each lobe (Okamoto 1917, Ricker 1952, Van Wieren et al. 2001, Zhiltzova 1988, Teslenko & Zhiltzova 2009), and all differ in pigmentation and pattern of the fore body. Known Megarcys eggs (van Wieren et al. 2001, and my own observations of M. ochracea (Klap {lek, 1912) and also the egg of S. yamadae (Isobe 1988) have a double collar. Several have a somewhat battered appearance because of concave areas on the egg surface.

03E6653C132C1371FC52FD5BFB1703CC.taxon	description	Male. Middle part of antecosta 9 sclerotized but flat, separating two steeply rising back-curved fleshy cones (Figs. 53, 54). Caudal margin of T 9 triangularly excised, base of epiproct partly exposed. T 10 completely divided into simple hemitergites by the large epiproct rising from a deep cowl (Fig. 55). The scooped front part is laterally articulated and from this point on forms a basal rod in the bottom of the cowl. By transparency, its upcurved caudal end appears as a dark V-shaped mark in the base of the forward-bent part of the epiproct. The remarkably large and wide base of this part occupies about 1 / 3 of the length. The anterior 2 / 3 have in dorsal view the shape of a straight finger. In side view appears a strong triangular extension of the ventral contour line (Fig. 56). The finger widens gently towards the rounded apex. The dorsal contour of the epiproct is indistinctly concave, almost straight. Between the hemitergites the lateral edges of the epiproct cowl are strengthened by distinct slender paragenital sclerites. No penial armature noticed. Female.

In case of doubt, the strong cones on T 9, the acutely triangular ventral extension, and the wide and large base of the epiproct identify it immediately. Sweltsa lepnevae Zhiltzova from Primorje seems to be most similar but differs in pattern (Teslenko & Zhiltzova 2009), females were available for comparison. Their head mark is only about half as wide, the distal 2 / 3 of antennae are dark brown, and there is a narrow dark margin along the front and sides of the pronotum. Males of S. lepnevae (from the description) have lower cones on T 9, the epiproct has a narrow base and in side view no ventral entension. Its tip is slightly sinuous but essentially downcurved.	en	Zwick, Peter (2010): New Species And New Records Of Plecoptera From Korea And The Russian Far East.
