Abstract

Morphological characters of the larvae of four species in the genus Hydropsyche (H. dolosa, H. brontes, H. napaea, and H. camillus) are described and figured for the first time. The most important diagnostic features are illustrated, and some information regarding their distribution, biology, and habitat are included.
