Abstract

Larvae, pupae, and adult males and females of Clytocerus (Boreoclytocerus) americanus (Kincaid), as well as adult males and females of Clytocerus (Boreoclytocerus) microlimnetessp. nov. were collected during various biodiversity surveys in the southeastern United States. Clytocerus (B.) americanus is redescribed, C. (B.) microlimnetes is described, and the natural history and relationships of Nearctic species of Clytocerus are discussed.

Résumé

Des larves, nymphes et mâles et femelles adultes de Clytocerus (Boreoclytocerus) americanus (Kincaid), ainsi que des mâles et femelles adultes de Clytocerus (Boreoclytocerus) microlimnetessp. nov. ont été recueillies lors d’échantillonnage de la biodiversité dans différents états du sud-est des États-Unis. Clytocerus (B.) americanus est redécrit, C. (B.) microlimnetes est décrite, et l'histoire naturelle et les relations de Clytocerus néarctiques sont discutées.
