Acroneuria arida is a species of stonefly in the family Perlidae.

[1] It is relatively uncommon and found in northeastern locations in North America, namely regions in Canada and the United States.

A. arida was first described in 1861 by German entomologist Hermann August Hagen.

[1] On a global scale, A. arida is considered vulnerable,[3] however there is no official status rank in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and it has been possibly extirpated from North Carolina.

[1] Acroneuria arida is considered a predacious insect and is found in both freshwater and terrestrial habitats.
