USA, New Hampshire, Grafton Co., Lebanon, 22 April 1973, P. Gray, 1 male, 1 female (BYU). Remarks. Adults were described and illustrated in Wu (1923) and redescribed in Grubbs (2006). In the latter (his figs. 1 – 27), the epiproct and outer paraproct lobe of nine populations from seven states were illustrated with SEM and depicted little morphological variability with either structure. The SEM images shown herein from Pennsylvania (Fig. 23) and Kentucky (Fig. 24) likewise depicts little variability. The outer paraproct lobe was also illustrated in Needham & Claassen (1925; their plate 38, fig. 3) and Hitchcock (1974, his fig. 137). The combination of the asymmetric dorsal (Figs. 17 – 19, 22) and ventral sclerites (Figs. 17 – 18), plus the inner epiproct member that is flanged and directed laterally, with the flange lip enlarged apically (Figs. 18 – 21), aligns this species closely with S. alexandria and S. calcarea. The larva of S. vallicularia remains the only eastern species where the immature stage has been described in full (see Stewart & Stark 2002 and all references therein). Soyedina vallicularia is the most widespread among the eastern Nearctic species, including Atlantic Canada, Appalachian Mountains, Great Lakes region, and Ohio River and upper Mississippi River basins (Fig. 79).
