A study of the larvae of Caddisflies (Trichoptera) from Cuba

Abstract: The larvae of Caddisflies from Cuba were extremely poorly known, in contrast to the adults of these insects. By sampling and examining «metamorphotypes» (i.e. closed pupal cases containing not only the pupa, but also the larval sclerites shed at pupation, and, if the pupa is «ripe», also allowing examination of the genitalia), and also by using circumstantial evidence, the larvae of a number of species from a collection made by the author in 1973 were associated with adults. Described and illustrated here are … Show more

“…To date, only immatures of A. cubanus Kumanski, 1987 andA. recta Schmid, 1964 have been described (Botosaneanu 1994;Flint 1973). This lack of knowledge of immature stages is particularly problematic, given the recognized importance of larval and pupal characters to establish a reasonable classification and phylogenetic system.…”
