Description

Amphinemura appalachia Baumann

is a relatively recent addition to the PA stonefly fauna, previously collected from only two small forested creeks in northeastern Pennsylvania, in the upper Delaware and North Branch Susquehanna River basins, one of which is the paratype location (Baumann 1996, Masteller 1996). Amphinemura appalachia as the name suggests is found in the Appalachians from Pennsylvania south to Georgia.

New records: BERKS: (D) Northkill Creek, most downstream bridge in state game lands, 22 April 1994, 1♂; SCHUYLKILL: (S) Catawissa Creek, 10 m upstream of Audenreid Tunnel discharge, 20 April 2005, 5♂, 2♀.
