Capnia
''Capnia'' is a genus of small winter stoneflies in the family Capniidae. There are at least 120 described species in ''Capnia''. ''Capnia'' has generally been considered polyphyletic. Three new or resurrected genera have recently been created, partially or wholly, from some of its species: '' Arsapnia'', '' Sierracapnia'', and '' Zwicknia''. In addition, seven ''Capnia'' species were previously included the genus ''Bolshecapnia'' when it was elevated from subgenus to genus, and three of those species were placed in the new genera ''Eurekapnia ''Eurekapnia'' is a genus of small winter stoneflies in the family Capniidae The Capniidae, the small winter stoneflies, are a family of insects in the stonefly order (Plecoptera).

Capniidae
The Capniidae, the small winter stoneflies, are a family of insects in the stonefly order (Plecoptera). It constitutes one of the largest stonefly families, containing some 300 species distributed throughout the holarctic. Their closest relatives are the rolled-winged stoneflies (Leuctridae). Many species are endemic to small ranges, perhaps due to the family's tendency to evolve tolerance for cold (isolating populations in mountain valleys) and winglessness (inhibiting dispersal). Indeed, some wingless Capniidae – e.g. the Lake Tahoe benthic stonefly ('' "Capnia" lacustra'', ''Capnia'' is not monophyletic and this species is suspected to belong elsewhere) or '' Baikaloperla'' spp. – spend their entire lifecycles under water and do not disperse from their native lakes at all. Description and ecology Adult Capniidae, as their common name implies, are typically small Plecoptera; while most are less than 1 cm long with some measuring just 4 mm as adults, a fe ...

Arsapnia
''Arsapnia'' is a genus of small winter stoneflies in the family Capniidae. There are about eight described species in ''Arsapnia''. The genus ''Arsapnia'' was originally described in 1897, but was considered a synonym of Capnia. ''Arsapnia'' was re-established in 2014 by Murányi, et al., for eight species of ''Capnia ''Capnia'' is a genus of small winter stoneflies in the family Capniidae.

Plecoptera
Plecoptera is an order of insects, commonly known as stoneflies. Some 3,500 species are described worldwide, with new species still being discovered. Stoneflies are found worldwide, except Antarctica. Stoneflies are believed to be one of the most primitive groups of Neoptera, with close relatives identified from the Carboniferous and Lower Permian geological periods, while true stoneflies are known from fossils only a bit younger. Their modern diversity, however, apparently is of Mesozoic origin. Plecoptera are found in both the Southern and Northern Hemispheres, and the populations are quite distinct, although the evolutionary evidence suggests species may have crossed the equator on a number of occasions before once again becoming geographically isolated. All species of Plecoptera are intolerant of water pollution, and their presence in a stream or still water is usually an indicator of good or excellent water quality.

Bolshecapnia
''Bolshecapnia'' is a genus of small winter stoneflies in the family Capniidae. There are at least four described species in ''Bolshecapnia''. ''Bolshecapnia'' was described in 1965 as a subgenus of Capnia, but has since been elevated to the rank of genus. In 2019 the species ''Bolshecapnia missiona'' and ''Bolshecapnia sasquatchi'' were determined to be distinct from the other species of ''Bolshecapnia'', and were placed in the new genus ''Sasquacapnia''. In addition, the species ''Bolshecapnia maculata'' was placed in the new genus ''Eurekapnia''. Species These four species belong to the genus ''Bolshecapnia'': * ''Bolshecapnia gregsoni'' (Ricker, 1965) * ''Bolshecapnia milami'' (Nebeker & Gaufin, 1967) * ''Bolshecapnia rogozera'' (Ricker, 1965) * ''Bolshecapnia spenceri'' (Ricker, 1965) References Further reading * * Plecoptera {{plecoptera-stub ...

Polyphyletic
A polyphyletic group is an assemblage of organisms or other evolving elements that is of mixed evolutionary origin. The term is often applied to groups that share similar features known as homoplasies, which are explained as a result of convergent evolution. The arrangement of the members of a polyphyletic group is called a polyphyly .. ource for pronunciation./ref> It is contrasted with monophyly and paraphyly. For example, the biological characteristic of warm-bloodedness evolved separately in the ancestors of mammals and the ancestors of birds; "warm-blooded animals" is therefore a polyphyletic grouping. Other examples of polyphyletic groups are algae, C4 photosynthetic plants, and edentates. Many taxonomists aim to avoid homoplasies in grouping taxa together, with a goal to identify and eliminate groups that are found to be polyphyletic. This is often the stimulus for major revisions of the classification schemes. Researchers concerned more with ecology than with syste ...
