The
Heterosternuta
species
Following
Alarie & Nilsson (1997)
and
Larson et al. (2000)
the
Hydroporus
subgenus
Heterosternuta
has been given generic status and including 13 species (
Nilsson 2001:153
).
As
the gender of
Heterosternuta
is feminine, the following additional changes in the inflection of adjectives are necessary:
H. alleghenianus
(Matta & Wolfe, 1979)
to
allegheniana
,
H. laetus
(Leech, 1948)
to
laeta
,
H. ouachitus
(Matta & Wolfe, 1979)
to
ouachita
,
H. pulcher
(
LeConte, 1855
)
to
pulchra
, and
H. sulphurius
(Matta & Wolfe, 1979)
to
sulphuria
.
