Ricker (1952) subsequently designated a lectotype from Old Forge, New York. Leuctra tenella is the sister species of L. carolinensis ( Grubbs 2015 ) and generally exhibits a more northeastern distribution. However, this species has been reported from Virginia ( Kondratieff & Kirchner 1987 ), Great Smoky Mountain National Park in North Carolina ( Parker et al. 2007 ) and nearby locations in Haywood and Macon counties ( Grubbs 2015 ). This species was collected from a 3 rd order stream in the Blue Ridge Physiographic Province of northern Georgia. Material examined.
