Remarks. With 101 (77 males and 24 females) specimens collected, this was the most common species of Kempnyia in PECJ. The head and pronotum are shown in Fig. 14 and the penial armature in Figs. 17–18. It was originally described from Eugênio Lefèvre, based on a single male and a putative female. In the collection of the Museum of Zoology I located two females from Eugênio Lefèvre in a vial with alcohol that had dried up and later refilled. Despite being discoloured, they could be recognized as belonging to K. tamoya, and their subgenital plates agreed entirely with those from females from PECJ. As regards the putative female in the original description (Froehlich 1984), see comments under K. gracilenta. In PECJ, K. tamoya has been collected from September to December, but most fly in November–December (74 % in November, 17 % in December).Published as part of Froehlich, Claudio G., 2011, Kempnyia (Plecoptera) from the Mantiqueira Mountains of Brazil, pp. 20-32 in Zootaxa 2999 on page 28, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.20303

The species was described based on a single male from Nova Friburgo, RJ, deposited in the National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC. Subsequently, it was found in PEI, southern São Paulo State (Bispo & Froehlich 2004) and in the State of Rio Grande do Sul (De Ribeiro & Froehlich 2007). During this study, I located, in material from the MZSP, more specimens from the original locality and nearby places.</p> <p>In PECJ, the species shows a variable colour pattern on the head. Some specimens are similar to the holotype (Froehlich 2002, Fig. 67) and to the male from PEI (Bispo & Froehlich 2004, Fig. 6), with the frons more uniformly coloured. Most, however, show lighter areas along the middle of the frons (Figs. 1–2). In PEI, the species is also variable (Bispo & Froehlich, 2004). The penial armature (Figs. 5–6) of the present material agrees well with that of the holotype, the main difference being that the keel appears rounded in the holotype and is pointed in males from PECJ. In males from PEI, the keel forms a pair of converging lines. The posterior contour of the female subgenital plate (Fig. 3) has a deeper median notch than that of PEI females; sternum 9 of both is similar. As regards size, forewings of males varied from 12.1 to 15.2 mm (n=38) in length, those of females from 15.2 to 19.0 mm (n=28). Eggs (Fig. 4), 0.20–0.22 x 0.37–0.40 mm (n=8) are more elongate than those of PEI. These differences should be seen as variations between populations.</p> <p>In PECJ, the species was flying from November to March, but mostly from December and January (40 specimens out of 51).</p>Published as part of <i>Froehlich, Claudio G., 2010, Anacroneuria (Plecoptera, Perlidae) from the Mantiqueira Mountains, São Paulo State, Brazil, pp. 55-68 in Zootaxa 2365</i> on pages 56-59, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/275765">10.5281/zenodo.275765</a>

Colour pattern similar to that of the males, but the head may present more extensive lighter areas. Forewing length 14.2 to 15.0 mm (n= 5). The subgenital plate has only the median lobes (Fig. 30). St 9 presents a somewhat rounded setal patch; the hind margin varies from broadly concave to broadly convex with narrow, dense setal fringe; posterior marginal sclerotization weak. Egg (Fig. 31). Very long, 0.51–0.53 x 0.20–0.22 mm, n= 6. Remarks. The species was described from a single male from Campos do Jordão. Forewing length of the holotype is 10.6 mm, while lengths of the examined males vary from 10.9 to 12.0 mm (n= 6). New figures of the head and pronotum (Fig. 26), male hammer (Fig. 27) and penial armature (Figs 28–29) are presented. Seven of 10 specimens were collected during the day using a net or a beating sheet, one was caught in a Malaise trap, and one was reared from a nymph. The species is seemingly not attracted to lights. In PECJ it was collected from September to November.Published as part of Froehlich, Claudio G., 2010, Anacroneuria (Plecoptera, Perlidae) from the Mantiqueira Mountains, São Paulo State, Brazil, pp. 55-68 in Zootaxa 2365 on page 67, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.27576

Membrane and veins of forewings light brown; C and Sc brownish basally, rest pale. Legs light to medium brown, coxae, trochanters and base of femora yellowish. Cercomeres pale brown with darker apices. Male. Forewing length 12.8 –17.0 mm (mean= 15.4 mm, N= 51). Tergum 10 (Fig. 20) pale medially and at bases of cerci, most sensilla basiconica carrot-shaped (Fig. 22). Projecting part of the subgenital plate (Fig. 23) about twice as broad as long; hammer roughly pear-shaped; basally from hammer, an ochraceous stripe; subgenital plate mostly whitish. Sternum 9 antero-laterally from plate brownish ochraceous. Paraprocts (Fig. 21) finger-like, without a subapical denticle; apical sensillae with sparse minute hairs. Penial tube with pair of lateral spinose patches near armature (Fig. 24). Basal ring of armature moderately broad (Figs. 25–27), hooks making a compact curve, inner curve distally with crenulations. Female. Forewing length 18.6–22.1 mm (mean= 20.5, N= 9). Outer contour of subgenital plate (Fig. 28) rounded with a small apical notch. Plate light brown to ochraceous. Sternum 9 (Fig. 30) with two slightly sclerotized wedges on each side. Numerous microtrichia on connecting membrane between sternum 9 and 10. Egg (Fig. 31). Oval, obtuse. Eggs taken from the body of a female measured 0.39–0.40 x 0.21–0.22 mm. Those from an egg pack from another individual, 0.34–0.36 x 0.18–0.19 mm. Remarks. Kempnyia tupinamba belongs to a group of species that has a comma-shaped, spiny patch on the penial tube basal to the armature. The other species are K. sazimai Froehlich, 1988, K. umbrina Froehlich, 1988 and K. vanini Froehlich, 1988. Kempnyia sazimai is the largest, with a forewing length of 19.4 mm in the male, but is lighter in colour than K. tupinamba. Both K. umbrina and K. vanini are smaller, with a mean male forewing length of around 12 mm. Kempnyia vanini is ochraceous, while K. umbrina is brown and, as such, more similar to K. tupinamba, but the tip of the paraproct is angled and the peg bristles are short elliptical. Etymology. The species is named for the Tupinambá Indians that lived on the Brazilian coast from the east of São Paulo State northwards.Published as part of Froehlich, Claudio G., 2011, Kempnyia (Plecoptera) from the Mantiqueira Mountains of Brazil, pp. 20-32 in Zootaxa 2999 on pages 28-30, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.20303

Antennae and palpi brownish; basal segments of palpi lighter. Pronotum light brown to brown, rugosities lighter, broad pale median stripe; in several specimens, lighter lateral areas exist. Mesonotum brownish, paler medially. Legs ochraceous to light brown, bases of femora lighter. Wing membrane and veins light ochraceous to brownish; C, Sc, R and basal RA pale. Cerci ringed in pale and light brown. Male. Forewing length, 8.2–10.2 mm (n= 39). Hammer (Fig. 20) almost cylindrical, 70–80 µm long. Penial armature (Figs. 21–22), in dorsal view, 3 -lobed apically, lateral lobes (shoulders) well sclerotized and, in side view, arching. Hooks regularly curved, pointed. Ventral apical vesicle single, flaring laterally. Dorsal keel absent. Female. Forewing length, 11.8 –15.0 mm (n= 25). Subgenital plate basically 4 lobed, but lobes varying in size (Figs. 23–24). Median notch shallow to relatively deep, mesal lobes narrower than lateral ones and frequently bent inwards. Lateral lobes from about the same height as the mesal ones to practically absent. Distal margin of St 9 mostly shallowly concave, slightly sclerotized; larger hairs only near margin. Laterosternite sclerotized at limit of St 9. Egg (Fig. 25). Oval, 0.20–0.21 x 0.35–0.37 mm (N= 6). Remarks. This species is distinguished by the penial armature, with its unique flaring, single, ventral apical vesicle, besides its shoulders and the absence of a keel. This was the commonest species in PECJ. It was flying from October to April but most (69 out of 84) in March and April. Etymology. The name honours Yara Aiko Tabata, researcher at the Salmoniculture Station of Campos do Jordão, State Fisheries Institute, for her help in collecting and, especially, in rearing nymphs.Published as part of Froehlich, Claudio G., 2010, Anacroneuria (Plecoptera, Perlidae) from the Mantiqueira Mountains, São Paulo State, Brazil, pp. 55-68 in Zootaxa 2365 on pages 63-67, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.27576

On head (Fig. 14), central frons light ochraceous; lappets and sides of parietalia darker; in some specimens, darker spots near M-line or at sides of frons. Palpi light brown, antennae mostly light brown to brown. Pronotum light brown to brown with light broad median pale stripe and light lateral areas. Mesonotum brownish, paler medially. Legs light ochraceous to brownish. Forewing membrane pale brown to ochraceous; veins ochraceous to light brown, distal portions of C, Sc and R-RA paler than rest of veins. Females, but not the males, generally present a lighter window, in the distal half, in some specimens recognizable only by the paler RP and M veins. Cerci whitish to pale brownish from base, in some specimens, apical segments darker. Male. Forewing length 9.1 to 10.9 mm, n= 24. Hammer a truncate cone 0.1 mm long. Penial armature (Figs. 16–17) on the whole tapering from base to apex; keel a low elevation marked by radiating lines; hooks regularly curved, tips pointed. Ventrally on distal part, a pair of large vesicles. In lateral view, dorsal contour distal to keel with pronounced curvature. Female. Lighter in colour than male. Forewing length 12.4 to 15.0 mm, n= 33. Subgenital plate (Fig. 15) four-lobed, median notch wide and deeper than lateral ones. Lateral lobes varying in size, from about size shown in figure to clearly larger. Distal part, including lobes, a little darker. Sternum 9 with a T-shaped hairy area, distal margin distinctly darker, with median concavity. Egg (Fig. 18). Oval, 0.19–0.22 x 0.35–0.37 mm, n= 6. Remarks. This species is similar to A. subcostalis Klapálek 1921, but is darker and, in the forewing, vein Sc is brownish basally and paler distally, whereas in A. subcostalis it is brown, in contrast to the much lighter other veins; another difference is that the distal window of the forewing is absent in males of A. simulans. In the male, the part of the penis distal to the hooks is much longer than in A. subcostalis and, in side view, the dorsal contour distal to the keel is markedly curved, but only slightly so or straight in A. subcostalis; the keel itself is identical in the two species. A. simulans adults were collected from November to April, but most (32 out of 54) in March and April. Etymology. The epithet comes from the Latin simulo, meaning a copy, referencing the similarity of this species to A. subcostalis.Published as part of Froehlich, Claudio G., 2010, Anacroneuria (Plecoptera, Perlidae) from the Mantiqueira Mountains, São Paulo State, Brazil, pp. 55-68 in Zootaxa 2365 on pages 59-63, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.27576
