Insecta, Ephemeroptera: Range extensions and new state records from far western Montana, U.S.A. W. Patrick McCafferty 1 Robert L. Newell 2 1 Department of Entomology, Purdue University, West Lafayette. Indiana, U.S.A. 47907. E-mail: mccaffer@purdue.edu 2 Flathead Lake Biological Station, University of Montana. 32125 Bio Station Lane, Polson, Montana, U.S.A. 59860. The U.S.A. state of Montana is the third largest in size (380,838 km 2 ) of the conterminous states but has been one of the poorest known states in terms of its specific Ephemeroptera (mayfly) fauna (McCafferty 2001). This note represents a considerable step towards rectifying that situation by providing new record data for species collected in the far western Rocky Mountain region of Montana. The exact study area to which our new data apply includes all of Montana west of the Continental Divide, and all of Glacier National Park, which in the north extends both west and east of the Continental Divide (Figure 1). Thus, locales in the Montana records herein are from Deer Lodge, Flathead, Glacier, Granite, Lake, Lewis and Clark, Lincoln, Mineral, Missoula, Powell, Ravalli, Sanders, and Silver Bow Counties. We contribute new Montana record data for 38 species. Previously, 49 species were known from western Montana based on published data, with Traver (1934; 1935) being the major provider of previous records. The present work brings the total number of Ephemeroptera species for western Montana to 87, although in the past some other species may have been listed without confirming data or may have appeared in unpublished reports, or grey literature. It is not our policy in establishing faunal inventories to recognize species listed without accompanying data (see McCafferty 2000), nor is it the policy of Check List to include species appearing in grey literature. Figure 1. Western Montana study area; location within U.S.A., and pertinent landmarks. 260

In the record data given herein, the larval stage of the species applies, unless adults as (A) or adults and larvae as (A, L) are indicated with the date of collection. Bracketed acronyms for material depositions are as follows: Bureau of Land Management/Utah State University National Aquatic Monitoring Center BugLab, Logan, Utah [BLAB]; Confederated Kootenai-Salish Tribes Fisheries Department, Polson, Montana [CKST]; Cornell University Arthropod Collection, Ithaca, New York [CUAC]; University of Montana Flathead Lake Biological Station Reference Collection, Polson, Montana [FLBS]; United States Field and Wildlife Services vouchers at Flathead Lake Biological Station [FWS]; Illinois Natural History Survey, Urbana, Illinois [INHS]; Montana Department of Environmental Quality vouchers held at Rhithron and Associates, Missoula, Montana [MDEQ]; Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks, Kalispell, Montana [MFWP]; Biology Department, Montana Tech of the University of Montana, Butte, Montana [MTB]; Purdue Entomological Research Collection, West Lafayette, Indiana [PERC]; and United States Geological Service vouchers held at Flathead Lake Biological Station [USGS].

Hamilton, and at Darby, 1-IX-2005, R. Newell [FLBS]. McDunnough (1924) described this species from the Waterton Lakes area of Alberta, Canada, which lies just north of the Alberta-Montana (Glacier County) border. There is no evidence, however, that the material was from Waterton Lake itself, which is shared by Alberta and Montana. Furthermore, this species is not known to be lacustrine. Acerpenna pygmaea (Hagen). FLATHEAD COUNTY, Stillwater River, at Olney, 5-V-2007, R. Newell [FLBS, PERC].

This species was originally described by McDunnough (1924) from the Waterton Lakes area of Alberta, Canada, which lies immediately north of the Alberta-Montana (Glacier County) border. There is no evidence, however, that it was taken from Waterton Lake itself, which is shared by Alberta and Montana. Centroptilum conturbatum McDunnough.
