Abstract
Two species in the genera Neoperla and Kamimuria (Plecoptera: Perlidae) from China are described as new: Kamimuria guangxia sp. n., and Neoperla mesostyla sp. n. The new species are compared to similar taxa.
Highlights
Kamimuria and Neoperla (Plecoptera: Perlidae) are the most speciose genera within the subfamily Perlinae within China (Du et al 1999, DeWalt et al 2013)
The new species is similar to K. atra Sivec & Stark, 2008, a species known both from Vietnam and Thailand, in general body color and features of terminalia, but tergum 8 of the new species has no sensilla basiconica patch
The new species is characterized by the aedeagal tube being short (≤3× width of bulb) and the ventral, bifurcate process being midlength on the tube
