Acroneuria carolinensis

Acroneuria carolinensis (Banks, 1905) Notes This species is commonly known as the Carolina Stone (Stark et al. 2012). The distribution of A. carolinensis extends from Quebec west to Manitoba and south to Alabama and South Carolina (Stark 2004, DeWalt et al. 2024). Sheldon (1985) reported this species from low elevations (500-700 m) in the Little River drainage in east Tennessee. Schmidt and Tarter (1985) reported a two-year life cycle, for A. carolinensis from a stream in West Virginia. In New York, adults of this species have been collected from early June through mid-July (Fig. 33), with a presence mainly in smaller streams and rivers at elevations ranging from 59-647 m asl (Fig. 34). This species is likely more common than current collections indicate, with most records from elevated regions of the state (Fig. 35 b).
