Abstract
Neoperla coosa, a new stonefly species, is described from male, female and egg stages. The species resembles Neoperla osage from the Ozark M ountains, but the male aedeagus is more similar to that of Neoperla cl ymene. The new species is known only from the Coosa and Cahaba drainag e systems of Alabama.
