Imagen superior: Óleo con larva y adulto de tricóptero. Autora: Ana Sánz. 1. Breve definición del grupo y principales caracteres diagnósticos Los tricópteros o frigáneas (Trichoptera, del griego trichos, "pelo" y pteron, "ala") son artrópodos de la Clase Insecta cuyos adultos portan alas cubiertas de pilosidad. Casi todas sus especies dependen del medio acuático para su desarrollo. La mayoría habitan en ríos y arroyos de aguas limpias y bien oxigena- das, aunque también se pueden encontrar en ambientes lénticos, terrestres e incluso marinos. Forman un grupo natural y están cercanamente emparentados con las mariposas y polillas (Lepi- doptera), que tienen escamas en sus alas y, como ellos, son capaces de producir seda. Ambos forman el superorden Amphiesmenoptera. De hecho, el grupo es sobre todo conocido por la habilidad de sus larvas para fabricar, con seda y diversos materiales, una gran variedad de construcciones como estuches portáti- les (Figura 1), refugios fijos, redes para la recogida de alimento y galerías, por lo que también se les ha denominado “arquitectos subacuáticos” (Mackay & Wiggins, 1979; Wiggins, 2004). Aunque para la cons- trucción de los estuches los tricópteros utilizan el material disponible en el lecho del río, el tipo y disposi- ción de las piezas que usan suele tener un marcado carácter filogenético (https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=3vr6Z54LJtM&spfreload=10). -

Pseudotsuga Menziesii
SPECIAL PUBLICATION 4 SEPTEMBER 1982 INVERTEBRATES OF THE H.J. ANDREWS EXPERIMENTAL FOREST, WESTERN CASCADE MOUNTAINS, OREGON: A SURVEY OF ARTHROPODS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CANOPY OF OLD-GROWTH Pseudotsuga Menziesii D.J. Voegtlin FORUT REJEARCH LABORATORY SCHOOL OF FORESTRY OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY Since 1941, the Forest Research Laboratory--part of the School of Forestry at Oregon State University in Corvallis-- has been studying forests and why they are like they are. A staff or more than 50 scientists conducts research to provide information for wise public and private decisions on managing and using Oregons forest resources and operating its wood-using industries. Because of this research, Oregons forests now yield more in the way of wood products, water, forage, wildlife, and recreation. Wood products are harvested, processed, and used more efficiently. Employment, productivity, and profitability in industries dependent on forests also have been strengthened. And this research has helped Oregon to maintain a quality environment for its people. Much research is done in the Laboratorys facilities on the campus. But field experiments in forest genetics, young- growth management, forest hydrology, harvesting methods, and reforestation are conducted on 12,000 acres of School forests adjacent to the campus and on lands of public and private cooperating agencies throughout the Pacific Northwest. With these publications, the Forest Research Laboratory supplies the results of its research to forest land owners and managers, to manufacturers and users of forest products, to leaders of government and industry, and to the general public. The Author David J. Voegtlin is Assistant Taxonomist at the Illinois Natural History Survey, Champaign, Illinois. -

Species Fact Sheet
SPECIES FACT SHEET Common Name: Scott’s apatanian caddisfly Scientific Name: Allomyia scotti Wiggins 1973 (Imania) Synonyms: Imania scotti Phylum: Mandibulata Class: Insecta Order: Trichoptera Family: Apataniidae Genus: Allomyia Conservation Status: Global Status (2005): G1 National Status (1999): N1 State Statuses: Oregon: S1 (NatureServe 2010). Type Locality: OREGON, Clackamas and Hood River counties, Mt. Hood, 1st to 3rd order streams originating from perennial seeps and springs supplied by permanent snowfields around Mt. Hood at elevations from 3,500 to 5,700 feet (Wiggins 1973b; Wanner and Arendt 2015). Water was clear and cold, temperature in July and August between 2 and 6ºC. Rocks in the stream bear dense growths of a wiry moss (Wiggins 1973b; Wanner and Arendt 2015). Technical Description (Wiggins 1973b): Adult: Length of forewing male 7.7-8.1 mm, female 7.7-9.0 mm. General structure typical of the genus and for tripunctata group; dark brown in color, forewings covered uniformly with dark brown hairs. Venation similar in two sexes, essentially as illustrated for Imania bifosa Ross by Schmid (1955, see fig 15). Wing coupling mechanism consisting of approximately eight stout, non- clavate, bristles at base of hind wing, and line of short, stout, hooked setae along costal margin of hind wing which engage upon long hairs arising from anal margin of forewing (as illustrated for Lepania cascadia by Wiggins 1973a, see fig 21). Male and female genitalia described in Wiggins 1973b. Adult Caddisfly (NC State 2005). 1 Larva: Generally similar to other larvae in this genus, but distinguished primarily by the prominent horns on the head. -
This Table Contains a Taxonomic List of Benthic Invertebrates Collected from Streams in the Upper Mississippi River Basin Study
This table contains a taxonomic list of benthic invertebrates collected from streams in the Upper Mississippi River Basin study unit as part of the USGS National Water Quality Assessemnt (NAWQA) Program. Invertebrates were collected from woody snags in selected streams from 1996-2004. Data Retreival occurred 26-JAN-06 11.10.25 AM from the USGS data warehouse (Taxonomic List Invert http://water.usgs.gov/nawqa/data). The data warehouse currently contains invertebrate data through 09/30/2002. Invertebrate taxa can include provisional and conditional identifications. For more information about invertebrate sample processing and taxonomic standards see, "Methods of analysis by the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Quality Laboratory -- Processing, taxonomy, and quality control of benthic macroinvertebrate samples", at << http://nwql.usgs.gov/Public/pubs/OFR00-212.html >>. Data Retrieval Precaution: Extreme caution must be exercised when comparing taxonomic lists generated using different search criteria. This is because the number of samples represented by each taxa list will vary depending on the geographic criteria selected for the retrievals. In addition, species lists retrieved at different times using the same criteria may differ because: (1) the taxonomic nomenclature (names) were updated, and/or (2) new samples containing new taxa may Phylum Class Order Family Subfamily Tribe Genus Species Taxon Porifera Porifera Cnidaria Hydrozoa Hydroida Hydridae Hydridae Cnidaria Hydrozoa Hydroida Hydridae Hydra Hydra sp.
