Larvae of the genus Nectopsyche (Trichoptera : Leptoceridae) in eastern North America, including a new species from North Carolina

摘要

The larva, adult male, and adult female of Nectopsyche waccamawensis n. sp. are described. This new species appears to be endemic to Lake Waccamaw in Columbus County, North Carolina, and brings to 9 the number of Nectopsyche species now known east of the Mississippi River. The larva of Nectopsyche sp. A, a probable new species, is also described. Descriptions, illustrations, and a key are provided for the larvae of all eastern North American species with the exception of N. spiloma (Ross), but including the previously undescribed larva of N.paludicola Harris.
