“…Schmid (1955) established the genus Placocentropus to include a single species from Chile (Polycentropus obtusus (Schmid, 1955)). The discovery of three additional species from Chile (P. aspinosus Schmid, 1964, P. quadriappendiculatus Schmid, 1964and P. quadriaspinosus Schmid, 1964 and an increased familiarity with the New World fauna, led Schmid (1964) to designate Placocentropus as a junior synonym of Polycentropus. This decision was based on affinities in wing venation between the two taxa (open discoidal cell and presence of fork I in the hind wing).…”

Abstract. Phylogeny of Polycentropodidae Ulmer is inferred based on data from immature and adult stages. Larval information is unknown for 61% of the taxa included in this study. To understand the effects of including characters with large sets of missing data, three alternative datasets were analysed using parsimony and Bayesian methods. Five outgroup taxa, including the four families in Psychomyioidea and the single family in Hydropsychoidea, were used in all datasets. Monophyly of Polycentropodidae, as currently defined, was rejected and the monophyly of the three largest cosmopolitan genera, Polycentropus, Polyplectropus and Nyctiophylax, was not confirmed. Monophyly of Pseudoneureclipsinae, including the genera Antillopsyche and Pseudoneureclipsis, was supported in all analyses. The placement of Pseudoneureclipsis within Dipseudopsidae was rejected. Monophyly of Kambaitipsychinae was supported, but its placement within Polycentropodidae was not confirmed. Analyses were sensitive to either inclusion or exclusion of characters from immature stages. Based on the results of these analyses, the following taxonomic changes are established: Kambaitipsychidae, stat. nov. and Pseudoneureclipsidae, stat. nov. are elevated to family status. North American Polycentropus species originally described in either Plectrocnemia or Holocentropus are returned to their original combinations and North American species described in Polycentropus post-1944 are transferred to either Holocentropus or Plectrocnemia. The following new or reinstated combinations are proposed: Plectrocnemia albipuncta Banks, comb, rev.; Plectrocnemia aureola Banks, comb, rev.; Plectrocnemia cinerea (Hagen), comb, rev.; Plectrocnemia clinei Milne, comb, rev.; Plectrocnemia crassicornis (Walker), comb, rev.; Plectrocnemia jenula (Denning) comb, nov.; Plectrocnemia icula (Ross), comb, nov.; Plectrocnemia nascotia (Ross), comb, nov.; Plectrocnemia remota (Banks), comb, rev.; Plectrocnemia sabulosa (Leonard & Leonard), comb, nov.; Plectrocnemia smithae (Denning), comb, nov.; Plectrocnemia vigilatrix Navas, comb, rev

“…Flint (1967b) established Mastigoptila as a new genus based on differences in wing venation and the asymmetrical form of the male genitalia. Valverde & Miserendino (1998) provided details of the immature stages and biology of M. longicornuta (Schmid, 1958). Although female allotypes have been designated for 3 species, none have been described.…”

“…Schmid (1959) established the genus based on its rather unusual morphology. Merionoptila has a large head, bulky thorax, hairy eyes, very long and hairy legs, and a relatively reduced abdomen (Schmid 1959). Additionally, the wings and venation of the male are extremely reduced while the female is completely brachypterous (Schmid 1959).…”

Revision and phylogeny of the caddisfly subfamily Protoptilinae (Trichoptera: Glossosomatidae) inferred from adult morphology and mitochondrial DNA

Protoptilinae Ross, 1956, is the most diverse subfamily belonging to the saddle- or tortoise-case-making caddisfly family Glossosomatidae Wallengren, 1891. The subfamily has a disjunct distribution: 5 genera are known from the East Palaearctic and Oriental regions; the remaining 13 are restricted to the Nearctic and Neotropical regions. Monophyly of Protoptilinae and each of 17 genera was tested using 80 taxa, 99 morphological characters, and mitochondrial DNA (COI). Additionally, homologies of morphological characters were assessed across genera and a standardized terminology for those structures was established. Mitochondrial DNA data were unavailable for 55 of the 80 taxa included in this study. To test the effects of the missing molecular data, 5 different datasets were analyzed using both parsimony and Bayesian methods. There was incongruence between the COI and morphological data, but results suggest the inclusion of COI data in a combined analysis, although incomplete, improved the overall phylogenetic signal. Bayesian and parsimony analyses of all 5 datasets strongly supported the monophyly of Protoptilinae. Monophyly of the following genera was also supported: Canoptila Mosely, 1939; Culoptila Mosely, 1954; Itauara Müller, 1888; Mastigoptila Flint, 1967; Mortoniella Ulmer, 1906; Protoptila Banks, 1904; and Tolhuaca Schmid, 1964. Several taxonomic changes were necessary for classification to reflect phylogeny accurately. Accordingly, Matrioptila Ross, 1938; Poeciloptila Schmid, 1991; Temburongpsyche Malicky, 1992; and Nepaloptila Kimmins, 1964, are designated new junior synonyms of Padunia Martynov, 1910. Additionally, the endemic Caribbean genera Campsiophora Flint, 1964, and Cubanoptila Sykora, 1973, are designated new junior synonyms of Cariboptila Flint, 1964. Diagnoses and a key to the subfamilies of Glossosomatidae and world genera of Protoptilinae incorporating these taxonomic changes are provided.

Biogeography of amphipolar caddisflies in the subfamily Dicosmoecinae (Trichoptera, Limnephilidae)

Caddisflies of the family Limnephilidae are cool‐temperate insects widely diversified and largely distributed throughout higher latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, but with the most primitive subfamily, Dicosmoecinae, also represented in the Southern Hemisphere. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that the Dicosmoecinae originated in North America, and that the South American genera constitute a derivative monophyletic group including also the sole extant Australian genus Archaeophylax. A vicariance model to explain the presence of limnephilid Trichoptera in the Southern Hemisphere is discounted because the family probably did not exist at the time of the break‐up of Pangaea. A dispersal model has to contend with problems raised by the sequence of ocean barriers between North and South America and between Antarctica and Australia. Geological chronology for separation of the continents of Gondwana indicates that the ancestor of the Archaeophylax lineage probably reached Australia by way of South America and Antarctica some time before Australia became isolated and widely separated from Antarctica, no later than late Cretaceous or early Cenozoic time. Consequently, the Limnephilidae would be much older than indicated by the earliest fossils of the family now known from Oligocene strata of North America. Older fossils of limnephilid Trichoptera should occur in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
