DIAGNOSIS:
Adults and nymphs have fingerlike thoracic gills, in addition to the submental gills (
Fig. 233
) which many
Perlodinae
possess. The male hemitergal processes (
Fig. 279
) are curved anteriorly, extending across tergite 9, and are longer than those in
Arcynopteryx
and
Skwala
. Males have a prominent epiproct with lateral stylets (
Fig. 279
) which all other Mongolian
Perlodinae
lack. The female subgenital plate has a deep, narrow notch (
Fig. 280
).
