Neoperlops huanghuye
(
Chen, 2020
)
comb. n.
Phanoperla huanghuye
Chen, 2020
—
Chen 2020: 231
. (original description of the male and female from
Fujian
);
DeWalt
et al.
2020
(catalog).
Distribution
.
China
,
Fujian Province
, Mt. Wuyishan. Known from five males and six females, all collected at a single locality (
Chen 2020
).
Remarks
. The species was recently described and placed in
Phanoperla
.
However, it is a species of
Neoperlops
:
besides obvious similarity of the male and female terminalia, aedeagus and egg to those of
N. gressitti
, fig. 2C in
Chen (2020)
clearly shows the elongated tentorial callosities, characteristic for
Neoperlops
and
Tetropina
(
Zwick 1984
,
Sivec
et al.
1988
). The species can be distinguished from
N. gressitti
based on the slightly different head pattern, and denser sensilla basiconica of tergum 9. As mentioned above, identity and distinction should be confirmed by molecular studies.
