Abstract: Pteronarcyidae Newman, 1853 Notes Pteronarcyidae are commonly referred to as Salmonflies (Stark et al. 1998, Stark et al. 2012) and are among the largest-bodied stoneflies in North America. One genus with four species have been reported from New York (Myers et al. 2011). Nelson (2000) provided the most recent review of this family for eastern North America. Myers and Kondratieff (2017) provided descriptions and an updated key to the larvae from North America. Larval exuviae can often be found great distances from streams and rivers. Adults of this family have been recorded from mid-March through late June (Fig. 45). Pteronarcyidae in New York occupy a wide range of elevations from 41-866 m asl (Fig. 46).
