Resumen:
Plecoptera is a small neopteran order that probablyemerged in the Upper Carboniferous (Grimaldi & Engel,2005; Bethoux et al., 2011). The order is distributed acrossall continents except Antarctica and has about 4,000species in 16 families (Fochetti & Tierno-de-Figueroa,2008). In the Neotropical region, there are 542 describedspecies (DeWalt et al., 2017) distributed in 6 families and48 endemic genera (except for Anacroneuria which is alsoreported in the Nearctic Region; Stark et al., 2009; Vera,2009; McCulloch et al., 2016). Adults are weak flyers andare found in riparian vegetation, typically at high elevations(up to 3,800e4,200 m) (Roback, 1980). However, theyalso occur at low elevations
