A new synonym species with description of a new species of Rhopalopsole from China (Plecoptera: Leuctridae) [PDF]
Recently, we reviewed the specimens belonging to Rhopalopsole we have collected and compared them with the holotype and paratypes of Rhopalopsole vespertilio Chen & Du, 2017. We found that R. vespertilio should be synonymized with R.
