); bands on femora occur near the apices of the segments, whereas, those of the tibiae and tarsi occur near the bases of the respective segments. A small pale area also occurs between the brown bands on the tibiae and tarsi and their respective joints, as well as on the apices the femora. On some individuals brown bands on the femora can be diffuse. The ventral edge of forefemora has many long, hair-like setae, especially near the base (Figs. 19a,b). Long setae parallel the row of stout, sharp setae along the ventral edge of femora and on most specimens stop at the end of this row of stout setae. The ventral edge of mid and hind femora usually have fewer long, hair-like setae compared to the forefemora. The tibiae and tarsi of all legs have outer edge fringes of many hair-like setae that are shorter than occur on the femora. Longer setae on the outer edges of tibiae and tarsi, combined with rows of thicker, spine-like setae on their inner edges contributes to generally “hairy” appearance of the legs (Fig. 19b). Tarsal claws have distinct denticles that increase in size from base to the midpoint of claws. In addition to the long hair-like setae on the legs, both right and left mandibles have long setae along their outer edges and on their ventral surface (Figs. 20a,b). Segment 1 of the maxillary palp is short with its apex just reaching the tip of the outer corner of the galea-lacinia (Fig. 21a) and its ventral surface with a distinct patch of 1013 sharp setae (Fig. 21b). Although the length of segment 1 of the maxillary palp can be determined without removing the maxilla from a specimen, however, to view the patch of setae usually requires slide mounting the maxilla to view it at high magnification. The posterolateral projections on segment IX are distinctly larger than those on tergite VIII (

The least ornate condition is one where most dark brown marks are reduced or absent on tergites III, IV, VI, VII, and IX with some dark brown remaining on tergites I, II, V, and VIII. On some specimens reduced dark brown marks are only visible on tergites V, VI, and VIII. The amount of dark shading on tergites also seems to be more pronounced on female nymphs (

is a female nymph) compared to male nymphs. On male nymphs, dark brown marks may be restricted to tergites VII and VIII, with tergites IVI being mostly uniform brown except for dark shading along the posterior margins. Both male and female nymphs have small dark brown marks near the lateral margins of tergites anterior to gill insertions. Dark brown shading on abdominal tergites (in both sexes) is not retained on shed nymphal exuviae. Abdominal tergites of early instar nymphs may have a lighter yellow brown background color and dark brown shading medially and along the posterior margins of tergites IVIII. The variability of dark shading on abdominal tergites seems quite high across the range of this species with specimens from

Dark brown (almost black) marks occur adjacent to their posterolateral corners of all tergites and on gill bearing segments marks these occur above the gill insertions.

) all records are from first to third order stream channels. In CT it was reared from a small, first order stream that was the outlet of a small spring-fed pond in the southwestern part of the state (all CT records are from this same area). In the early spring, nymphs were particularly abundant in leaf packs and loose CPOM trapped under tree roots or under debris dams in shallow riffles or at the outlet of small pools. Currently most of the habitat information reported for records in CT, NY, and PA associates this species with small, cool, spring-fed stream systems. In

). Most characters seem consistent on nymphs from mid-development to the final instar as well as between sexes. Abdominal gills may appear to lack marginal setae or have a few short, widely spaced marginal setae. Legs are uniform light brown except for dark brown shading on femora and the dark brown mark on tibiae near joint with femora (

). Dark brown shading on the dorsal surface of femora is restricted to the outer half of the surface and is occasionally bisected by a longitudinal pale streak. Brown shading does not completely encircle femora and thus is described as forming incomplete bands. Evidence of residual brown shading also occurs on legs of nymphal exuviae (

). Legs also have small pale areas that occur near joints (including at the joint with claws) that break-up the uniform light brown background color of the leg segments. On some specimens these pale areas can appear to punctuate the background color of leg segments such that tibiae and tarsi may seem as if they are faintly banded.

With so few documented occurrences, the distribution of this species in the northeast Nearctic region is poorly known.

). In addition, because these small streams often have seasonally interrupted flow, resulting from variation in groundwater elevation, they are poorly documented on maps and often lack the regulatory protection afforded permanently flowing streams concerning land use activities such as logging, mineral extraction, agriculture, and commercial/residential development. Any event, or activity, that adversely affects flow and/or chemical composition of source water or reduces riparian forest cover poses a serious threat to these vulnerable small spring-fed streams and species that depend on them.

), but these spots are variable. The spot can vary in size and shape from a relatively distinct dark compact dot that is clearly separated from the coloration of the posterior margin and the area of the gill insertion to a larger and more diffuse dark blotch that is much less sharply defined and can appear to merge with dark shading at the gill insertion. Further, background color of tergites IIVI plays an important role in correctly observing this diagnostic dark spot (

). Tergites IIVI can vary on male nymphs from light to medium brown. On lightly pigmented abdomens the dark lateral spots are clear, but on the darker abdomens these dark marks are much less distinctive. Observing these marks on female nymphs is even more problematic because they all have medium to dark brown abdominal tergites (

). Although this color character is useful, it is often difficult to interpret across the full range of variation that exists in populations. It is used here as a character in support of the more decisive characters of the maxillary palp and tarsal claws. Finally, the group of large and blunt setae near the apex of femora is presented as another useful ancillary character. However, one potential problem with this character is that the large setae seem to be susceptible to damage. On several specimens studied one or more setae were broken, thus making it difficult to tell whether they were long and blunt, hence relegating this character to a supporting role as a key character.

). These characters seem consistent on nymphs from mid-development to the final instar. The posterolateral projections on abdominal segment IX are clear throughout development, but on some late instar nymphs the corners of the segment VIII tergite can appear to be somewhat acute giving the false impression that a posterolateral projection is present. Thus, simply having an acute tip to the corner of tergite VIII is not to be interpreted as a posterolateral projection. Correct interpretation of the mandibular incisor character requires locating the anterior margin of the mandible between the molar surface and the incisors. If a line drawn across the anterior margin would pass through or very close to the bases of the incisors, then the incisors are not considered to extend beyond the anterior margin. Although the incisor character can be observed on both mandibles (

), it is best observed on the left mandible for comparative purposes with other species of this genus. Moreover, because the incisors of the left mandible are not extended beyond the anterior margin, they also do not distinctly curve inward. Mandibles can be observed without slide mounting by carefully using a pin-probe to severe the outer articulation point on each mandible, thus allowing them to be rotated outward for viewing.
