1 Journal of The Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 27, Number 2, June 1997, pp Austroperla cyrene Newman (Plecoptera: Austroperlidae) I. D. McLellan* Amended diagnoses of Austroperla and the family Austroperlidae are given. A revised description is given of Austroperla cyrene (Plecoptera : Austroperlidae), type species of the monotypic genus Austroperla and the sole austroperlid in New Zealand. Included are notes on its distribution and biology. Keywords: taxonomy; revision; biology; Plecoptera; Austroperlidae; Austroperla cyrene INTRODUCTION Austroperla cyrene (Newman, 1845), the black stonefly and the eustheniid Stenoperla prasina (Newman, 1845), the large green stonefly were the first stonefly species described from New Zealand, and no others were described for another 64 years. Both are distinctive species and well known to anglers and others who frequent New Zealand streams and rivers, hence their common names. Professor E. Percival of Canterbury University College suggested that Thomson (1934) and Helson (1934) study the two species, and so they have the triple distinction of being the first New Zealand stoneflies to be described, the first to have common names, and the first to have their biology investigated. Austroperla cyrene is the only austroperlid in New Zealand and the sole species in Austroperla, the type genus of the family Austroperlidae, which was raised by Tillyard (1921) to contain Austroperla and Tasmanoperla. He gave no formal diagnosis for the family, but the characters he used for division of families in Perlaria (= Plecoptera) are contained in a table and a set of keys, both of which are based on mouthparts, wing venation, legs, and gills. Tillyard (1923) gave a brief diagnosis ofaustroperla based on wing characters. Tillyard (1923) figured the wing venation of Austroperla cyrene and gave a brief description. Kimmins (1938) gave a more detailed description and figured wings and male and female genitalia. Winterboura (1965) gave the first detailed description of the nymph and figured the gills. lilies (1969) gave diagnoses of Austroperlidae and Austroperla, and illustrated and described the nymph and adult coloration of A. cyrene. Although he figured the wings and male and female genitalia he referred the reader to Kimmins (1938) for descriptions. After comparing specimens of Austroperla cyrene with the figures and description of male genitalia in Kimmins (1938), I see that there are some mistakes and omissions. For instance, he recognised and drew the basal sclerite of the epiproct, referring to it as a wide shelf-like base, but he did not show its division, which is an important generic character. He also refers to the triangular tip of the epiproct incorrectly as "a large conical tubercle" on the basal sclerite, and omitted in the description reference to the epiproct basal process, although he drew it. Since Kimmins's (1938) description and Illies's (1969) diagnoses our knowledge of the structure of male genitalia in Antarctoperlaria has made some advances. McLellan (1971, 1993) evolved terms for describing male gripopterygid genitalia, but unfortunately Hynes (1974, 1976) used some of these terms to describe seven austroperlids without realising that Private Box 95, Westport, New Zealand
2 272 Journal of The Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 27, 1997 the parts he named were not homologous with those in Gripopterygidae. Here are more suitable terms, which should be used only for austroperlids, contrasted with those used by Hynes (1974) [in brackets]: tergite 10 [anterior sclerites of tergite 10]; epiproct basal sclerite [central sclerite of tergite 10]; epiproct basal process [posterior sclerite of tergite 10]. In most austroperlid genera tergite 10 is divided medially into the two sclerites. The epiproct basal sclerite is situated across the posterodorsal surface of segment 10, and is attached to lateral supporting sclerites of the epiproct. In the membranous triangular area bounded by these sclerites arises the peg-like epiproct basal process. Zwick (1981) had also noticed the origin of this basal process when he commented on Illies's (1969) incorrect use of terminal filament (the median gill filament in nymphs) for the posterior process (epiproct basal process). The membranous penis of gripopterygid males and its use in producing a spermatophore was first recorded by McLellan (1971), who later (1993) described the spermatophore, penis structure, and copulation in Zelandobius (Antarctoperlinae). Zwick (1979) recorded a spermatophore in Stenoperla (Eustheniidae), and McLellan (1996) described the penis of Stenoperla and Cosmioperla (Eustheniidae). Here the penis and spermatophore of Austroperla cyrene are described.

The holotype and 659 non-type specimens (125 males, 158 females, 362 nymphs, and 14 exuviae) from ND AK TO TK GB Rl WA WN/SDNNKAMB NC MC SC BR WD FD OL CO DN SL / SI. A full list of material and collection data may be obtained from the author. Remarks. There are no appreciable differences in the morphology of examples from north to south. Some wing shortening, with the wings usually terminating about abdominal segment 7 9, occurs in populations in most alpine regions, and in some lowland areas (Arnold River, BR). The pronotum has some variability in the degree of acuteness and extension of the angles; e.g., Dolamore Park (SL) specimens have anterior angles slightly produced and posterior angles rounded, whereas specimens from Mt Ruapehu (TO) have more produced and acute anterior and posterior angles. In nymphs the gills are tubular and may have irregular beading in the distal half (Dolamore Park, SL) or may be completely without beading (Waipoua, ND). Distribution (Fig. 9). Austroperla cyrene is widespread through the three main islands of New Zealand from near sea level to over 1600 m (OL, Mt Maungatika). It is also recorded from immediate offshore islands such as Secretary Island and Little Barrier, though not from the Kermadecs nor the Chatham Islands, which have no stoneflies. It is not recorded among the species found on The Snares, Auckland Islands, and Campbell Island. Biology. Thomson (1934) gave a detailed account of the anatomy of this stonefly, and was the first to describe and illustrate the nymph, its gills, and the male and female internal genitalia. She found that reared nymphs ate dead wood but preferred any bark covering it. They also ate dead animal matter, i.e., mayfly nymphs, Austroperla nymphs, and blowfly maggots. McLellan (in press) in May 1964 collected and reared nymphs in leaf packs from the Lower Buller Gorge (BR/NN). These animals utilised decaying leaves from the packs as food, and ate the soft tissue plus any fungal hyphae in it, discarding the skeletons. The most preferred leaves were of Coprosma australis. Most of the 30 nymphs reared survived to emerge as adults between October and December Collier (1990) found in the guts of A. cyrene large quantities of sooty mould fungi, which grow on the leaves of trees such as kamahi (Weimannia racemosa). These fungi, according to Barlocher (1985), have a greater nutritional value than the leaf tissue itself. Winterbourn & Rounick (1985) consider that A. cyrene, although nominally a shredder, appears to be a collector browser in some streams, feeding on fine particles of organic material and stone surface organic layers, or even grazing algae. The above observations show that this insect apparently adapts well to the differing resources of dissimilar waterways, perhaps the reason why this single species has successfully colonised all types of freshwater habitats from near sea level to alpine streams throughout the three main islands of New Zealand. Thomson (1934) found that the tissue of adults and nymphs contained hydrogen cyanide and that possibly owing to its presence nymphs were not attacked by the predatory nymphs of

On the unpalatability of A. cyrene, McLellan (in press) found that the guts of 84 brown trout {Salmo trutta) from West Coast rivers where A. cyrene is common contained 6860 food items, 99% of which were aquatic insects. Of the 423 plecopterans present, only 2 were

He also states that although most stoneflies have cryptic colour patterns, adults of A. cyrene have a black, white, and yellow pattern which stands out, as do the aposematic patterns displayed by other distasteful or dangerous insects. There are two undescribed New Zealand gripopterygids which have very similar colour patterns. In the large amount of collection data an extremely good picture of adult emergence appears (Fig. 10). The main emergence starts in November, peaks in December and continues through to March/April, with few adults appearing in the autumn, winter and early spring. This indicates that differences in latitude apparently have little effect on the timing of emergence. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For material either on loan or donated I am grateful to T. K. Crosby (NZAC), R.
