Male larva. Body length of mature larva 7–9 mm. Dorsum of head with contrasting pigment pattern and fine dark clothing setae, anterior frontoclypeus margin unpigmented; light M shaped pattern anterior to median ocellus connected to light frontoclypeus area by a thin median longitudinal light band, lateral thin arms directed posterolaterally, extending to antennal bases; posterior ocelli with partially enclosed large light areas along outer lateral margins; interocellar area variable, usually partially light, completely enclosed by dark pigment with light area extending to posterior margin of posterior ocelli, or sometimes mostly light and connected to posterior margin of head capsule by a thin median light band; occiput with irregular spinulae band extending from below eye to near median epicranial suture, not enclosed completely by dark pigment (Fig. 12a). Lacinia bidentate, total length 525–666 µm (Figs. 2j, 12 e-h, Tables 2-4); submarginal row (A+B) with 4 setae, groups A-B interrupted by gap below subapical tooth (SAT) inner margin (Fig. 12g); 1 submarginal seta (A) inserted at base of apical tooth (AT) inner margin, plus 1 thin marginal seta (TMS) adjacent to AT inner margin, sometimes obstructed from view by AT or broken, and 1 dorsal seta (DS) located below SAT inner margin, partially obstructed by SAT (Figs. 12 g-h); 3 submarginal setae (B) located past SAT inner margin (Fig. 12h); 6–9 marginal setae (C), initially long-stout and widely spaced, last few shorter and widely spaced, blending into and difficult to differentiate from dorsal surface setae (Fig. 12g); 7–14 ventral surface setae (D) scattered below marginal setae, ending posteriorly at approximately ¾ the inner lacinia margin length and concentrated in posterior half (Fig. 12f); dorsal surface setae (DSS) continue from last marginal setae (C) as a single, laterally protruding, submarginal row (sometimes 2–3 setae thick) along inner-lateral margin, ending before posterior-most ventral surface setae (Fig. 12f). Galea with 12–17 setae in sparse ventral row, apex with 2–3 setae. Maxillary Palp segments 2–3 with curved, apically pointed setae. Pronotum with median light area bordered (at least partially) by thin, irregular dark bands; discs each with partially enclosed light areas or “windows”, fine dark clothing setae and lateral margins with broad light bands (Fig. 12b). Meso and metanotum with contrasting pigment pattern and fine dark clothing setae (Fig. 12c). Legs with numerous fine dark clothing setae and scattered erect spines on outer surface of femora, erect spines longest and concentrated on dorsal surfaces; fine silky setae sparse on dorsal surface of femora, numerous and continuous on tibia (Fig. 20j); tibia with faint transverse bands near proximal end. Abdominal terga with three distinct longitudinal dark stripes; wide light median longitudinal band bisected with thin dark median longitudinal stripe; lateral pair of dark longitudinal stripes about as wide as median dark stripe, not extending to lateral margins; numerous fine dark clothing setae and erect spines scattered dorsally; posterior margin with scattered long and numerous short spines in a concentrated row (Fig. 12d). Distribution. Canada: British Columbia. USA: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Mexico: Baja California. Widely distributed throughout California. Diagnosis. Mature I. mormona male larvae are the smallest western Isoperla species (7–9 mm) and can be separated from other similar species that possess 2–4 submarginal setae (A+B) by having 7–14 ventral surface (D) setae (Fig. 12f), fine silky setae sparse on dorsal surface of femora, numerous and continuous on tibia (Fig. 20j) and interocellar area partially light (Fig. 12a). Remarks. Isoperla mormona is distributed throughout northern and southern California from perennial and non-perennial streams. In Butte and El Dorado counties, emergence occurred in May–June.
