853ACC619763CE2F6F78F97FFBD8FD10.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Bispo & Froehlich (2004) noted, that “ as presently understood, the species is widely distributed, its area being similar to the distribution of the genus. A careful analysis of specimens from different areas is needed to evaluate if they really belong to a single species ”. Zwick (1972) examined specimens from four States, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. Besides Santa Catarina, I have examined material from Minas Gerais (Serra do Cipó) São Paulo (Municipalities of Campos do Jordão, Cubatão, Iporanga, Jundiaí, Pindamonhangaba, Salesópolis and Santo André) and Goi á s (Pirenópolis). These specimens are similar in the dark body color, the structure of the male genitalia, the elliptical contour of the female subgenital plate covering part of sternum 10 and with a small apical indentation (Fig. 1). Local populations differ in body length and in color, sometimes a lighter band may be present on the pronotum and the femora may be more or less bicolored. The species concept presented by Bispo and Froehlich (2004) is confirmed. A new figure of the female subgenital plate and sternum 9 is presented in Fig. 1 and of the egg (Fig. 2) based on a female from the Boracéia Biological Station (Salesópolis Municipality).	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).

Santa Catarina, Boiteuxburgo, Nedanta fusca Nav á s, ♀ syntype (ZMUH).	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).

853ACC619760CE2D6D20FEA3FC42FD75.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This species, the type of the genus Kempnyia, has been seldom collected and is the subject to some confusion (Zwick 1972). Zwick (1972, fig. 9, a, b) figured the penial armatures of two males, one from Corup á, SC, and the second from Rio de Janeiro, RJ. Differences between the two specimens Zwick attributed in part to the teneral condition of the second specimen. The penial armature of the above listed male (Figs. 5 - 6) agrees relatively well with the specimen from Corup á, but in the basal part of the longitudinal bars there is an outer angle, the base of the hooks is broader and basally to the gonopore tube there is a large protuberance (present, but smaller, in the specimen from Rio de Janeiro). As the species is known from only a few specimens, and the above specimen agrees with Klap á lek´s original description, I place it as K. tenebrosa. Females of K. tenebrosa and K. neotropica can be distinguished by the shape of the subgenital plate. In K. neotropica the contour of the subgenital plate is elliptical with a small apical notch and covers most of sternum 9 and part of sternum 10, whereas in K. tenebrosa the plate is shorter and with a larger notch (Zwick 1972, fig. 9 c; Fig. 1). Nav á s (1932) studying material in the ZMUH collected in Boiteuxburgo (a locality ca. 60 km south of Blumenau), Santa Catarina, erected the genus Nedanta with three included species, one of which was Nedanta fusca. This species was based on one male and one female, but Nav á s had doubts whether they belonged to the same species. Zwick (1972) synonymized the male syntype with K. neotropica. In 1968 I examined the female syntype. The subgenital plate (Fig. 7) is shorter than that of K. neotropica and has a deep apical notch, indicating this female could belong to K. tenebrosa, but not to K. neotropica, confirming Nav á s’s doubts. Kempnyia neotropica and K. tenebrosa are sympatric both in Rio de Janeiro and in Santa Catarina. Kempnyia neotropica, however is a common species, but K. tenebrosa is rare, known for a few specimens. Kempnyia tenebrosa may be a species that is not attracted to lights, the more usual way of collecting adult stoneflies in the Neotropics. The male from Santa Catarina was collected using a beating sheet.	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).

853ACC619760CE2B6FE2FD02FA8BFEB2.taxon	description	Adult habitus. General color light brownochraceous. Head light brown to yellowish, darker at lappets, in part around M-line and from the anterior ocellus to the postfrontal line and paired ocelli (Fig. 8). Pronotum light brown with yellowish mid stripe. Legs, wings and cerci light brown-ochraceous. Male. Forewing length 13 mm. Subgenital plate short, less than half its width, bases turned inwards (Fig. 9). Hammer oval, broader posteriorly. Basiconic sensilla of tergum 10 long (Fig. 11). Paraprocts with a large subapical tooth and minute apical sensilla (Fig. 10). In the penial armature (Figs. 13 - 15), the foramen is large, the posterior rim is high and bent backwards, the anterior tips of the longitudinal bars are loose. The hooks are large and curved medially, crossing under the gonopore tube. The inner part of the curve presents thin-walled crenulations. Female. Forewing length 18 mm. Subgenital plate light in color, apical contour rounded, apically a minute indentation Sternum 9 with the darker extensions extending anteromesially (Fig. 12).	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).

853ACC619760CE2B6FE2FD02FA8BFEB2.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The above two specimens were identified as K. klugii (Pictet), a dark species with completely different penial armature (Zwick, 1972). In fact, K. kaingang is most similar to K. tenebrosa, with its large hooks that cross under the gonopore tube (cf Figs. 5 - 6) or rises at its side (Zwick, l. c.), but in K. kaingang the dorsal rim of the armature projects posteriorly more strongly, the hooks are stronger and the gonopore tube is thick. In addition, Kempnyia tenebrosa, as the name implies, is a dark species, in contrast to the light-colored K. kaingang.	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).

853ACC619766CE296D61F965FB84FAF4.taxon	description	Male. Forewing length 20 mm. General color light brown.

Pronotum light rusty brown, rather uniform, with an inconspicuous lighter mid stripe. Legs light brown. Wing membrane and veins yellowish. Tergum 10 basiconic sensilla carrot-shaped (Fig. 18), similar to those of K. auberti; paraprocts (Fig. 19) with a blunt subapical tooth, several long hair sensilla present. Subgenital plate oval, relatively short, hammer pear-shaped (Fig. 17). On penis tube basal to armature, a pair of rather flat spiny patches (Fig. 21). Penial armature long, hooks thin and twisted apically, gonopore tube broad as seen dorsally (Figs. 20 - 21).	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).

853ACC619766CE296D61F965FB84FAF4.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The above male bears the label “ ocellata Klap á lek ”, likely in Klapalek’s original handwriting. He did not publish the name. The species belong to the group of Kempnyia that have a pair of rather flat spiny patches on the penis tube basally and ventrally from the armature. When the penis is everted, the patches are on the dorsal side. This group includes K. neotropica, K. auberti Froehlich, and K. petersorum Froehlich. Kempnyia neotropica is a dark species smaller than K. ocellata, K. petersorum has a different color pattern (see above) and is smaller, wing length of males 11.1 - 12.4 mm. Kempnyia auberti is of similar size to K. ocellata, with wing lengths of the two known males 18.4 and 22 mm, respectively, but the head pattern is different, lacking the dark bridge between the paired ocelli, the subgenital plate is shorter, the paraprocts lack a subapical tooth and the gonopore tube is narrower.	en	Froehlich, Claudio Gilberto (2011): Notes On Kempnyia, With The Description Of Three New Species (Plecoptera: Perlidae).
