By adding specimens collected through the Arctic Shorebird Demographic Network survey and those from the collection of the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, a total of 5305 individuals are newly reported, which substantially expand our distributional knowledge of these families from the Alaska-Yukon region. Seventeen species are newly reported from Alaska; three from the Yukon Territory. Following this study 160 species are now recorded for the Alaska-Yukon region (136 in Alaska and 138 in Yukon territory). The Nearctic component of the fauna is made up of 103 species (64.4%), the Holarctic component of 57 species (35.6%). Most species (103, 64.4%) have a transcontinental distribution and are characteristic of the boreal and/or arctic ecozones whilst 57 species (35.6%), are recognised as species with western affinities. Eleven species are considered Beringian.","PeriodicalId":55492,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Insects","volume":"43 1","pages":"130 - 166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44052645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because the female answer is not yet known, it is uncertain if the male call signal should be considered as a repeated monophasic call signal pattern or a grouped call signal pattern. The duet of Protonemura bucolica (Consiglio, 1957) is a two-way exchange with monophasic grouped call and monophasic answer, showing the same general pattern of other Protonemura species. Capnioneura petricola Giudicelli, 1967 has a classic Capnioneura signal with monophasic call and answer signals overlapping. The Tyrrhenoleuctra zavattarii (Consiglio, 1956) duet, the second three-way signal exchange described in the family Leuctridae, has monophasic grouped male call and reply, and monophasic female answer.
