The paper presents the results of the next stage of the inventory of the stonefly fauna (Plecoptera: Insecta) in the streams of three specially protected natural territories of the Khabarovsky Region: Anyuisky National Park, Bolshekhekhtsirsky Nature Reserve and Komsomolsky Nature Reserve, obtained mainly on the basis field research in 2019-2021. A total of 70 taxa were found, among which six Palearchearctic species Nemoura lazoensis , Capnia khingana , Perlomyia mahunkai , P. martynovi, P. levanidovae and Sweltsa lepnevae are recorded for the fauna of the Khabarovsky Region and the Lower Amur Basin for the first time, the northern boundaries of their distribution have been expanded and clarified. The greatest species richness is characterized by the stonefly fauna of the Anyuisky National Park, which includes species Perlomyia martynovi, Kogotus tiunovi, and Suwallia asiatica endemic to the south of the Far East. For the first time, information is given for the stonefly fauna of the Bolshekhekhtsirsky and Komsomolsky reserves, which are distinguished by a smaller number of species; the lists include 31 and 21 taxa, respectively. In the zoogeographic aspect, the plecopterofauna is represented by five types of distribution with a clear predominance of Eastern Palaearctic species.
