Abstract:	An annotated list of the eleven Plecoptera species reported from Sălaj county, Romania, and data of the stonefly material collected in 2014 are given. Four species (Leuctra digitata Kempny, 1899, L. carpathica Kis, 1966, Protonemura aestiva Kis, 1965 and Perla cf. pallida Guérin-Méneville, 1838, sp. II.) are new records for the area. Taxonomical characters of larvae of two species related to Perla pallida Guérin-Méneville, 1838 are briefly discussed. Most of the stoneflies found are common European species, but at least L. carpathica can be considered as a Carpathian endemic.
