Six new species of Integripalpia (Trichoptera) from southern China
Six new species ofTrichoptera are described and figured, belonging to the families Goeridae and Leptoceridae. The goerid species are Goera baishanzuensis new species and Goera recta new species. The leptocerid species are Setodes chlorinus new species, Ceraclea (Athripsodina) semicircularis new species, Ceraclea (Athripsodina) brachyclada new species, and Ceraclea (Athripsodina) vaciva new species (Leptoceridae)
Tinodes species (Trichoptera: Psychomyiidae) from The People's Republic of China
Five species of the genus Tinodes from the People's Republic of China are described and re-described, among which four species are new to science. A key to males of all five species and a key to females of two species are given
Larvae of the three common North American species of Phylocentropus (Trichoptera: Dipseudopsidae)
The caddisfly genus Phylocentropus includes 7 extant species globally, of which 5 occur in eastern North America and 2 in eastern Asia. Larvae of the 3 most common North American species [Phylocentropus carolinus Carpenter, P. lucidus (Hagen), and P. placidus (Banks)] were associated with identifiable adults and diagnostic characters are described. Larvae ofthese 3 species may be distinguished by overall length of mature larvae, head color pattern, and number of spines on the hind tibiae. Larvae of other species of this genus are unknown
Polypiectropus species (Trichoptera: Polycentropodidae) from China : with consideration of their phylogeny
Six species of the genus Polyplectropns are recorded from the People's Republic of China. All the species are new to science. A key to the males is given. The larva of Polyplectropns nanjingensis sp. nov. is illustrated. The phylogenetic relationships among these species and with Polyplectropns species of the New World are discussed
The Paduniella (Trichoptera: Psychomyiidae) of China : with a phylogeny of the World species
The phylogenetic relationships of the species of Padunielia are analyzed based on characters of larvae, pupae, and adults (mainly male genitalia). The genus is monophyletic and most closely related to Psychomyia, and Metalype in the subfamily Psychomyiinae. Nine species groups are suggested. Eight species, including six new to science, are reported from the People's Republic of China for the first time
