New Species and Life Stages of Atopophlebia (Ephemeroptera: Leptophlebiidae: Atalophlebiinae)

Abstract:

The nymph and female subimagines of Atopophlebia fortunensis are described for the first time and two new South American species, A. obrienorum and A. yarinacocha are described from male imagines. Nymphal morphology shows that Atopophlebia represents an evolutionary intermediate between the relatively plesiomorphic Pan-Austral leptophlebiid fauna and the genus Thraulodes of the warm Neotropics. © 1987, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
