Description

Neoperla cavaleriei (Navás)

(Fig. 4)

Ochthopetina cavaleriei Navás, 1922. Brotér. Sér. Zool. 20: 49; Wu, 1938. Plecopterum Sinensium, a monograph of the stoneflies of China (Order Plecoptera): 124. Type locality: Houy-Tche’ou (Reg. de Pin-Fa).

Ochthopetina cavalerieri: Illies, 1966. Das Tierreich 82:494 (species inquirenda). (misspelled name).

Neoperla cavaleriei: Du et al., 1999. Acta Entomol. Slovenica, 7: 62; Du & Sivec. 2004. In Yang, X.K. (Ed.). Insects from Mt. Shiwandashan Area of Guangxi: 41; Stark and Sivec, 2008. Illiesia, 4: 20; Sivec and Zwick, 1987. Beitr. Entomol. 37: 394.

Neoperla kachin Stark & Szczytko, 1979. Aquatic Insects. 1(4):221.

Neoperla cavalerieri: In Li et al., 2012. Zootaxa. 3478:36. (misspelled name).

Material examined. 1 male (HIST), China: Yunnan Province, Tongbiguan, Jinzhuzhai, 24.6122 N, 97.6567 E, 2012. V.3, Light trap. Yuanye Liu; 1 male (CAU), China: Yunnan Province, Mengla County, 21.4593 N, 101.5646 E, 2011. IV.29, Light trap, Yan Li.

Remarks. The specimen from Tongbiguan (Fig. 4 a) agrees well with illustrations and descriptions of Sivec and Zwick (1987, figs. 9–11). The specimen from Menglun (Fig. 4 b), seems also very similar to N. lui in details of the aedeagal armatures, but these features were not illustrated in the original figures (Figs. c & d in Du and Sivec 2004). The specific status of this species in N. cavaleriei complex is unresolved (Li et al. 2012). The spelling of the specific name cavaleriei had been problematic (Sivec and Zwick 1987), and followed by Li et al. (2012).

Distribution. It has been recorded from Southeast Asia including Vietnam, Thailand and China.
