Abstract

Background: Jiangsu Province is located on the southeast coast of China and lacks high-altitude mountains, with only a few hilly areas mainly distributed in its southern region. In recent years, We investigated the diversity of Plecoptera species in the major mountainous and forested areas of Jiangsu, recording a total of 20 species across 12 genera and five families.

New information: In this paper, we examined the materials of Kamimuria from Jiangsu and described a new species, K.liyangensis sp. nov. In addition, detailed English descriptions and colour pictures of K.microda are provided for the first time.

Keywords: Guizhou; Jiangsu; Perlidae; Plecoptera; new species.
