Plesiomorphies of Permoplectoptera (unlike Euplectoptera). Wings are homonomous – i.e. hind wings have nearly the same size and venation as fore wings (Kluge 2004: Fig.14:B). At least in some representatives tergalii are present not only on abdominal segments I–VII, but on abdominal segments VIII–IX as well (Kluge 2004: Fig.14:D). For larva of americana [Kukalova], are described segmented tarsus and two claws, that resembles adult structure and differs from larval Euplectoptera (Kukalova 1968).

Size. Fore wing length 6–32 mm.

Age. From Early Permian to Early Cretaceous.
