The present disposition of components of the Sericostomatidae s. lat. (Trichoptera)

  • Conference paper
Proceedings of the 2nd International Symposium on Trichoptera

Abstract

By 1940, the family Sericostomatidae had become an extremely diverse group, containing 8 subfamilies or tribes and many disparate genera. Since then, primarily on the basis of larval studies, many taxa have been removed from the family either as full new families or as entities within other families. Knowledge of the larvae throughout the superfamily Limnephiloidea has demonstrated that these transfers were not a case of simple hierarchal inflation, but were necessitated because the Sericostomatidae in the broad sense was polyphyletic in the extreme.

This study was supported by a research grant from the National Science Foundation, U.S.A.
