Those with many kinds of totally tubular homes, now have a new home.

A while ago SFG finished the migration of decades of cataloging effort from John Morse and friends.

This morning the SFG team met with 11 #Trichoptera taxonomists from around the world in an introduction to TW and that data.

A fun couple of days working on by-catch including lots of Trichoptera (Caddis Flies) a few Neuroptera (Lacewings), one chunky Megaloptera (Alder Fly) and a couple of Plecoptera (Stoneflies). More records for the client, beyond Diptera. A close up of Agrypnia varia below dipteraid.co.uk/projects/

Awesome caddisfly nymph I started to id for my bug class. CUTE
Image of a view of a caddisfly(Order Trichoptera) nymph through a microscope. It's in its case made of sand and other aquatic debris. The case is a brownish beige and the poking out head of the larvaeis a similar color An image of the same caddisfly now removed from its case. It has hardened and darker mesonotums and a transparent abdomen. It is very cute

Vicariance and dispersal in the Aegean Archipelago: Molecular phylogeography reveals the origin and divergence times of <i>Hydropsyche</i> (Trichoptera: Hydropsychidae) species
Divergence times of Greek Hydropsyche lineages fall mostly within the Pliocene-Pleistocene, rejecting ancient vicariance. Widespread species show shallow divergences consistent with dispersal, while ...

That's wonderful! We talked today in Naomi Pierce's lab group about you!

Is there a recent summary of total Lep phylogenyfrom Trichoptera all the way to silk moths? The last illustrative phylogeny I liked was in Mitter et al. 2017, but surely there's a more recent one?
Phylogenetic tree depicting relationships among species of Lepidoptera (i.e. butterflies and moths), also showing the names of superfamilies and some photos of live specimens of key species and or their caterpillars.

"Rough night"
I found this Caddisfly on my deck, after a cold and windy night. Do Caddisflies count for #FlyDay? I hope so!

Photo showing an insect resting on a wooden surface. The insect's wings are folded tent-like over its abdomen and are a mottled brown. Small hair can be seen on them, as is typical for the order Trichoptera. Only part of the long antennae are in the frame. Watermark identifying photographer as Geneviève Laurin.

the nematocerans, trichoptera, and adelids COULD all be considered “primitive” or early-diverging members of their respective orders, but not of insects in general

I thought we had a new moth to our Perth Hills garden light... turns out it was actually a Caddis Fly!

This also led me to learn about the superorder Amphiesmenoptera, which contains both Lepidoptera and Trichoptera

Side view of an insect with speckled brown wings on a white surface. At first glance it appears to be a moth, but a closer look shows that the wings are hairy, rather than scaly. Caddis fly, possibly in the genus Ecnomus

Ich würde die Larve aber eher für eine Eintagsfliegenlarve halten, hab gerade nachgelesen, bei Kleinlibellen müssten die 3 Anhänge blattartig sein, das sind dann die Kiemen. www.citizenscience.lu/arten/tiere/...
