A new species of Indonemoura fujianensis complex (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Central China, with female association of I. auriformis Li Yang, 2008.
Zootaxa, 2020Co-Authors: Ding YangAbstract:A new species of the Indonemoura fujianensis complex of in the genus Indonemoura Baumann 1975 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae), I. wangae sp. nov. is described from the Shennongjia National Natural Reserve, Hubei Province of Central China. This new taxon is compared with other related members of the I. fujianensis complex. The female of I. auriformis Li Yang, 2008 is positively associated based on mating pairs recently collected. In the original description, the female of this was erroneously associated and is considered now as an unidentified Indonemoura female herein.

(Plecoptera: Nemouridae) are described and illustrated as two new stonefly species from northern China. Affinities of the new taxa with similar regional species of Amphinemura are discussed. Amphinemura verrucosa Zwick, 1973 is reported from China for the first time.

A surprising rediscovery and description of a new species of Soyedina Ricker, 1952 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA
Journal of Insect Biodiversity, 2019Co-Authors: Scott A. Grubbs, Boris C. Kondratieff, Richard W. BaumannAbstract:Soyedina parkeri sp. nov. (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) is described from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA. This species was recognized as new over 15 years ago by the junior authors but had yet to be formally described until now. Soyedina parkeri sp. nov. appears closely-related only to S. sheldoni Grubbs & Baumann, 2019 due to shared characteristics of the sclerotized inner member of the epiproct. Soyedina parkeri sp. nov. can be readily separated from all other nine species of eastern Nearctic Soyedina by the broadly rounded apical portion of the outer paraproct lobe.Key words: Plecoptera, Nemouridae, Soyedina, new species, Nearctic, North Carolina, Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Soyedina Ricker, 1952 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) in the eastern Nearctic: review of species concepts, proposed morphology-based species groups, and description of a new species from North Carolina.
Zootaxa, 2019Co-Authors: Scott A. Grubbs, Richard W. BaumannAbstract:The eastern Nearctic species of the genus Soyedina Ricker, 1952 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) are reviewed. Two morphology-based species groups are proposed based on epiproct characteristics. Soyedina sheldoni sp. nov. is described from the southern Appalachian Highland region of western North Carolina. A distribution map and a dichotomous key to all nine Nearctic species are provided.

A review of eastern Nearctic Zapada (Plecoptera, Nemouridae) with a new species from the Great Smoky Mountains
Freshwater Science, 2015Co-Authors: Scott A. Grubbs, Richard W. Baumann, Andrew L. SheldonAbstract:AbstractWe describe a new species, Zapada fumosa n. sp., from the southern Appalachian Mountains. In addition, we collected the rare species Zapada chila (Ricker) for the 1st time in 35 y. We reviewed the eastern Nearctic Zapada (Plecoptera, Nemouridae) fauna and give brief, amended descriptions for Z. chila and Z. katahdin Baumann and Mingo. We illustrated males and gills of all 3 eastern Zapada species with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and provide a key to the adult stage. Zapada fumosa n. sp. appears to be closely related to Zapada cinctipes (Banks), a broadly distributed western Nearctic species. Unlike most widely distributed and common western Zapada, eastern Zapada are uncommon or have restricted ranges. Rarity and the potential for impending extinction of Z. chila and Z. fumosa n. sp. are discussed in light of altitudinal range reduction and climate warming issues.

A review of the Nearctic genus Prostoia (Ricker) (Plecoptera, Nemouridae), with the description of a new species and a surprising range extension for P. hallasi Kondratieff & Kirchner.
ZooKeys, 2014Co-Authors: Scott A. Grubbs, Richard W. Baumann, R. Dewalt, Tari TweddaleAbstract:The Nearctic genus Prostoia (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) is reviewed. Prostoia ozarkensis sp. n. is described from the male and female adult stages mainly from the Interior Highland region encompassing portions of Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma. Prostoia ozarkensis sp. n. appears most closely related to two species, one distributed broadly across the western Nearctic region, P. besametsa (Ricker), and one found widely throughout the central and eastern Nearctic regions, P. completa (Walker). A surprising range extension is noted for P. hallasi Kondratieff & Kirchner, a species once known only from the Great Dismal Swamp, from small upland streams in southern Illinois. Additional new state records are documented for P. besametsa, P. completa, P. hallasi and P. similis (Hagen). Taxonomic keys to Prostoia males and females are provided, and scanning electron micrographs of adult genitalia of all species are given.

A new species of Protonemura Kempny, 1898 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae) from the Ishizuchi range, Shikoku, Japan.
Zootaxa, 2020Co-Authors: Dávid Murányi, Maribet Gamboa, Kozo WatanabeAbstract:A new species of the genus Protonemura Kempny, 1898 (Plecoptera: Nemouridae: Amphinemurinae) is described from the Ishizuchi Range of Shikoku Island, Japan, based on the male, female and Co1 sequences. Protonemura shimizui Muranyi Gamboa sp. n. belongs to the P. orbiculata species group sensu Shimizu, 1998. The new species appears to be limited to the higher elevations of the Ishizuchi Range. Faunistic survey of the high elevation rheocrenes of the Ishizuchi Range is also presented.

molecular phylogeny and diversification timing of the Nemouridae family insecta plecoptera in the japanese archipelago
PLOS ONE, 2019Co-Authors: Maribet Gamboa, Dávid Murányi, Shota Kanmori, Kozo WatanabeAbstract:The generation of the high species diversity of insects in Japan was profoundly influenced by the formation of the Japanese Archipelago. We explored the species diversification and biogeographical history of the Nemouridae Billberg, 1820 family in the Japanese Archipelago using mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA markers. We collected 49 species among four genera: Indonemoura Baumann, 1975; Protonemura Kempny, 1898; Amphinemura, Ris 1902 and Nemoura Latreille, 1796 in Japan, China, South Korea and North America. We estimated their divergence times—based on three molecular clock node calibrations—using Bayesian phylogeography approaches. Our results suggested that Japanese Archipelago formation events resulted in diversification events in the middle of the Cretaceous (<120 Ma), speciation in the Paleogene (<50 Ma) and intra-species diversification segregated into eastern and western Japan of the Fossa Magna region at late Neogene (20 Ma). The Indonemoura samples were genetically separated into two clades—that of Mainland China and that of Japan. The Japanese clade clustered with the Nemouridae species from North America, suggesting the possibility of a colonisation event prior to the formation of the Japanese Archipelago. We believe that our results enhanced the understanding both of the origin of the species and of local species distribution in the Japanese Archipelago.
