Emergents of Pteronarcys californica, Calineuria californica , and Hesperoperla pacifica were captured with replicated emergence traps at 3 sites along the banks of Rock Creek, Montana. Pteronarcys emergence in early June was short (88% of individuals in 6 d) and attained rates of 5 m -1 d -1 (shoreline distance) and cumulative densities up to 19 m -1 yr -1 . Calineuria emerged synchronously (89% in 9 d) 2 wk later at densities up to 7 m -1 d -1 and 40 m -1 yr -1 . The less numerous Hesperoperla (5 individual m -1 yr -1 ) had a longer emergence period partially coinciding with Calineuria Median males of Pteronarcys and Calineuria emerged 2-3 d before median females; protandry was not significant Hesperoperla . Sex ratios were female-biased in Pteronarcys and Hesperoperla but male-biased in Calineuria . Size trends through emergence were very weak although females showed a greater tendency towered larger size early in emergence. 相似文献

Streambed surveys were conducted along the upper Colorado River, Colorado, to describe the distributions of Claassenia sabulosa larvae in relation to current speed and to determine their diets. We also addressed diel feeding periodicity by sampling during both day and night. Claassenia sabulosa was more abundant in riffle habitats than in runs. A positive relationship existed between C. sabulosa abundance and stream current, with larval size increasing with current speed. Chironomidae, Baetidae, and Simulidae collectively accounted for 93% of the prey found in stonefly guts; however, these categories were not consumed equally by all C. sabulosa . Smaller C. sabulosa primarily ate chironomids, and larger individuals consumed more baetids. Only a slight difference existed in the percentage of empty guts between night- and day-collected stoneflies, and ranges of prey per gut at night were higher than those in the day, suggesting that these stoneflies may forage more intensively at night. 相似文献

Nymphs and adults of three new species of Isoperla are described from reared material. I. sagittata is known only from southeastern Texas, I. Coushatta has been collected in East Texas and Oklahoma, and I. jewetti occurs in the Basin and Range Mountains of West Texas. The male aedeagii, female subgenital plates, and nymphal mouthparts are diagnostic in all three species. 相似文献

Suwallia sierra and Sweltsa pisteri are described as new species in the family Chloroperlidae from California, USA. Illustrations of the male terminalia of both species and the female and egg of S. sierra are presented. In addition, detailed figures of the epiproct of 2 similar species, Sweltsa townsei and Sweltsa resima , are included. Diagnoses provided comparing the new taxa with related species. Observations indicate that S. sierra may belong to the same clade as the genus Neaviperla . 相似文献

A list of species, illustrated keys to nymphs and adults, distribution, and biological notes are presented for 24 stonefly species occurring in Louisiana. Leuctra moha?, Pteronarcys dorsata, Helopicus subvarians, Paragnetina kansensis, Paragnetina immarginata, Phasganophora capitata, and Acroneuria evoluta are recorded only from the florida parishes east of the Mississippi River. Isoperla Coushatta, Isoperla mohri, Neoperla clymene, an undescribed Neoperla (Sp. A), Paragnetina fumosa, Acroneuria abnormis, Acroneuria arenosa, Perlinella drymo, and Perlesta placida are found both east and west of the Mississippi; and Allocapnia granulata, Allocapnia malverna, Amphinemoura nigritta, and three species of Taeniopteryx have been recorded only west of the Mississippi. Habitats are primarily sand-bottomed streams of pine-hardwood rolling hills, constituting a portion of the western Gulf Coastal Plain. Few stoneflies occur in streams of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, the Alluvial Atchafalaya Basin, or the lowlands along the Red River. 相似文献

Adults emerged in February – March when mean daily stream temperature reached ca. 15 C. Reared females in the lab deposited up to three egg masses. Mean fecundity of dissected females was 787 eggs/female. Oviposition in the field was observed and described. Eggs were triangular in cross section, brown, and measured 400 µ m × 535 µ m. They underwent an ca. seven-month diapause until mean daily stream temperature decreased to 18 C. Eyespots appeared, and hatching followed in two to three weeks. First instar nymphs were measured and described. Male and female nymphs underwent 12 and 14 instars, respectively, and could be sexed by the sixth. Fast growth occurred in the coldest season and Simuliidae and Chironomidae larvae were preferred food throughout development. Eggs contained a mean of 6.21 cal/mg. Ash - free mean caloric value of last instar nymphs was 6.0 cal/mg. Adult males and females lost 33.8 percent and 57.6 percent, respectively, of their caloric pool through their ca. 12 days of life. 相似文献

Sasquaperla hoopa , a new genus and species of Chloroperlidae, is described from adults and preemergent nymphs collected in the Coast Range of northern California. Males are characterized by the epiproct reduced to a small, tablike structure bearing stiff hairs in a narrow band along the posterior margin. Females are similar to those of Sweltsa , but the nymphs bear several erect bristles lateral to depressed hair patches on the mesosternum. Modified keys are presented for adults and nymphs. 相似文献

Calileuctra is proposed as new genus in the family Leuctridae, with Calileuctra ephemera designated as the type species. All stages of Calileuctra ephemera are descpribed. Calileuctra dobryi is described in the male and female stages. Both species inhabit Mediterranean climatic region of California. A phylogenetic analysis of the genera in the family Leuctridae is given, which places Calileuctra near the genus of Perlomyia . 相似文献

The male epiprocts of 2 closely related western Nearctic species, Sweltsa fidelis (Banks) and S. revelstoka (Jewett), were examined using SEM. The males of these 2 species have been historically distinguished by epiproct measurements. The ratio of the length of the base to greatest width versus total epiproct length ranges from 0.49 μm to 0.67 μm ( ̄ x = 0.56) in S. fidelis and 0.55 μm to 0.69 μm ( ̄ x = 0.60) in S. revelstoka . Similarities in measurement suggest that the location of the greatest epiproct width is not a reliable and consistent character for distinguishing males of these 2 species. 相似文献

Capnia caryi , a new species of Nearctic Capniidae, is described from adults collected from high-elevation locations in the Southern Rocky Mountains of southern New Mexico and Arizona. Males are distinguished by their rounded club-shaped epiproct and sclerotized knobs on abdominal terga 8 and 9. Females possess a darkly sclerotized subgenital plate that covers most of tergum 8 and is produced posteriorly as a pair of broadly rounded lobes. 相似文献

Selected stonefly genera found in North America are classified as to their occurrence in: cold lotic, warm lotic, or lentic habitats. Most genera occur only in the cold lotic, but several occur both in cold and warm lotic systems. Few are found exclusively in warm lotic habitats and almost none in lentic. Lake or true lentic inhabits are found to usually be cold lotic species which have adapted to life in the wave-washed shores of cold mountain lakes. Even though data at the specific level would be even more useful, especially where different faunal regions are involved, stoneflies are probably the best insect indicators of aquatic environmental quality at the generic level. 相似文献
