Abstract
The net-spinning Trichoptera are confined to the members of the old Family Hydropsychidæ, which has been subdivided (Ulmer 1909) into four families, Hydropsychidæ, Philopotamidæ, Polycentropidæ, and Psychomyidæ. Nets of some of the genera of the first three families have been described, but as far as is known, larvae of the Psychomyidæ spin no catchingnets. (Wesenberg-Lund, 1911). The only nets described in this country up to this time have been of the genus Hydropsyche. Most of the work on the catching-nets has been done within the last six years and almost entirely by Danish investigators.Keywords
