Suppl. material to: An integrative investigation reveals one new oriental species of Epeorus (Belovius) from China (Ephemeroptera: Heptageniidae) (ISE)
Epeorus (Belovius) carinatus Braasch & Soldán, 1984 was thought to be distributed only in Vietnam until
it was recently reported in southern China. However, some morphological variations are also recognized
among its Chinese populations. Here, an integrative taxonomic approach, which is combined with genetic
analysis based on COI (mtDNA) and morphological evidence, is used to investigate the variation of this
species in China. The results show that E. (B) carinatus previously reported in China actually comprises
two species: the originally identified E. (B) carinatus and a new species, E. (B.) dentatus sp. nov. Both
male imaginal and nymphal stages of two species are described herein. Morphologically, these two species
can be distinguished from each other by (1) nymphal labrum and mandible, (2) coloration of abdominal
terga on both male imaginal and nymphal stages, (3) coloration of wings and (4) shapes of genitalia of
male imagines.
