Stoneflies (Plecoptera) of South Australia [PDF]

, 1990
Eight species of stoneflies were recorded from South Australian streams. All species have been previously described, but the first descriptions of the nymphs of Dinotoperla evansi and Riekoperla naso are given. Keys for the identification of male, female and nymphs of all species are given and some ecological information is also included.

Is Predaceous Stonefly Behavior Affected by Competition?

Ecology, 1985
Behavioral experiments were carried out in flow-through observation boxes in New York and Colorado streams to determine whether interactions between pairs of predaceous stoneflies were characterized by exploitative or interference competition and to determine the effect of prey density on such interactions.

Diapause in the Nymphs of Canadian Winter Stoneflies

Ecology, 1970
The nymphs of several winter stoneflies, Taeniopteryx burksi, T. nivalis, Brachyptera fasciata, Capnia manitoba, Allocapnia granulata, A. pygmaea, and A. vivipara, undergo a diapause during the summer. The diapause determines external morphological changes, which are described.

Distributional ecology of a rare, endemic stonefly

Freshwater Science, 2014
AbstractRare species are difficult to study or conserve. Beloneuria jamesae Stark and Szczytko (Cheaha Stone) (Plecoptera∶Perlidae) is endemic to the Talladega Mountains, Alabama, USA, rarely collected, and considered imperiled. We collected stonefly larvae at 181 locations and found Cheaha Stone at 33% of these.

Graded Mutations in Wings of a Stonefly

Nature, 1937
MORE than two hundred definable variants have been recognized in the wings of the variable stonefly, Allocapnia pygmœa Burmeister. Some of them were mentioned in a former paper1. The three following deviations are new and merit special reference. Figs. 1 and 2 are left and right forewings of the same female, the former nearly normal, the latter highly ...

New Names for Stoneflies (Plecoptera)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1936
For some years I have been assembling a list of species of the Plecoptera of the World, and during the past few years Dr. C. F. Wu and Dr. Helen H. Blauvelt have been assisting in this work. We have tried to check each species with the original description.

Antennal responses to volatile organic compounds in a stonefly

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2017
Notwithstanding their long antennae, especially in the adult stage, Plecoptera represent a poorly studied group as regards their sensory structures and their ability to perceive olfactory stimuli is so far totally unknown. A recent investigation on the antenna of Dinocras cephalotes revealed two kinds of putative olfactory sensilla (multiporous single ...

NEW SPECIES OF STONEFLIES (PLECOPTERA)

The Canadian Entomologist, 1937
Herewith are described five new species of North American Plecoptera. Included also is a description of Isoperla petersoni Needham (nec Claassen). Dr. Needham published figures of the nymph and adult of this species, anticipating that I would publish a description of this species before the Utah bulletin appeared in print.

The Stonefly Isoperla bilineata in Lake Superior

Journal of Great Lakes Research, 1980
Large numbers of nymphs of the stonefly Isoperla bilineata were found on gill nets set on the bottom off the west shore of the Keweenaw Peninsula in May, 1978. A fisherman said they were common there every year, but extensive Ponar grab sampling in the area in 1974 yielded no stoneflies.
