Abstract

Three Chinese species of the genus Phanoperla are reviewed. A new species, P.cheni sp. nov., is proposed from Guangdong, southern China, and compared with related taxa. Neoperlopsbinodosa Wu, 1973 is confirmed from Hainan Province of China on the basis of re-examination of types from the island, but it is transferred to the genus Phanoperla and is placed as a synonym of P.pallipennis (Banks, 1938). A note on the distribution of the genus Phanoperla is also given.

Keywords: Neoperlops binodosa; P. hainana; P. pallipennis; Phanoperlacheni sp. nov.; new combination; new species; new synonym.
