  • Provancher. 1878. Natural. canad. 10(4):127   >> Note: Provancher decides that the specimen(s) he based his redescription on from 1876 was not L. ferruginea Walk., but a new species, which he calls brunnea. But this is a preoccupied name though. Refer to 1876 paper for description. >> Leuctra brunnea    urn:lsid:Plecoptera.speciesfile.org:TaxonName:7522
