Abstract
We examined specimens of the Haploperla Navás, 1934 from Sichuan and Qinghai provinces, China. Two new synonyms of Haploperla valentinae Stark & Sivec, 2009 are established: Haploperla triangulata Chen & Du, 2016 syn. nov. and Haploperla datongensis Chen & Du, 2016 syn. nov. We redescribed H. valentinae from China with new color images to facilitate the identification. In addition, we also provide supplementary descriptions and contemporary color images of H. tuanjiena Du & Chen, 2016.
