Abstract:

Baetis braaschi ZIMMERMANN, 1980, a little known species of subgenus Rhodobaetis JACOB, 2003 has been redescribed and illustrated. The synonymy of B. braaschi and B. stipposus KLUGE, 1982 has been ascertained, and possible synonymy with B. bisri THOMAS & DIA, 1983 has been discussed. The additional description of winged stages of B. braaschi has been given. The distinguishing characters, which separate these species from other close ones of the subgenus Rhodobaetis, have been analyzed. The generalized data on the species distribution and its natural history has been given.
