Isoperla pseudosimilis is an Appalachian-distributed species reported from Maine southwest to Tennessee and North Carolina ( Szczytko and Kondratieff 2015, DeWalt et al. 2024). Isoperla pseudosimilis is a common species in New York and prior to 2015 most records were referred to as I. similis . Adults have been collected in New York from early April through late June (Fig. 38 View Figure 38 ) from elevations ranging from 119-480 m asl (Fig. 39 View Figure 39 ), with numerous records from elevated regions across the state (Fig. 43 c View Figure 43 c ).
