Styloperla
Wu, 1935
Wu (1935)
proposed
Styloperla
for
S. spinicercia
but the holotype is missing (
Uchida & Isobe 1989
) and paratype specimens retained in
China
were also apparently destroyed, consequently this species is known from the figures and descriptions provided by
Wu (1935
,
1938
).
Chao (1947)
added
S. inae
and
S. wui
from
Fujian Province
and these were redescribed by
Uchida & Isobe (1989)
. These authors also transferred two species,
Cerconychia flectospina
(
Wu 1962
)
and
Nogiperla obtusispina
(
Wu 1973
)
to the genus. Subsequently,
Yang & Yang (1990)
described
S. jiangxiensis
. Males of the genus are distinguished from those of
Cerconychia
by a longitudinally oriented hair brush on sternum 9 and females by the presence of vaginal sclerites.
