description: <i>Pteronarcys scotti</i> Ricker, 1952 http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid: Plecoptera.speciesfile.org: TaxonName:470668 (Figs. 58–66) <b>Remarks and Distribution.</b> When viewed dorsally the projections of AB 1-7 in <i>P. scotti</i> are less developed than those observed in <i>P. proteus</i>, outer margins of largest projections appearing nearly straight in dorsal view (Figs. 59, 62, 66). Viewed laterally the spines of AB5-7 appear as low rugose ridges that are nearly indiscernible, projecting past the posterior margin of the segment minimally in lateral view (Figs. 58, 61). Measured in dorsal view AB4 POM/SW &lt;0.15; AB6 ≤ 0.12 (Figs. 10, 59, 62). Additionally, this species lacks the distinctive medial yellow antennal band that is present in <i>P.</i> <i>proteus</i> (Figs. 64, 66). This species is restricted to the Appalachians with records available from Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee (Nelson 2000). <b>Material Examined.</b> <b>USA, Georgia: Murray Co.,</b> Jigger Creek, East Cowpen Rd., N 34.9626, W 84.6386, 9 February 2017, 2 L, C.
