Integripalpia

Agapetus fuscipes, copyright Janet Graham.

Belongs within: Trichoptera.
Contains: Hydroptilidae, Leptoceroidea, Limnephiloidea.

The Integripalpia are a group of caddisflies in which the larvae construct a portable tube or case for protection. In members of the family Glossosomatidae, the saddle-case makers, the case is dome-shaped and constructed of small stones with smaller grains used for the flattened ventral side.

Synapomorphies (from Ivanov & Sukatsheva 2002, as Phryganeina): Larva with head hypognathous, spinneret opening with wide dorsal lobe, silk thread flat, anal prolegs short and stout at least in last instar, claw articulation lateral (occasionally reversed to dorsal); larva marking portable tubes as provisional or permanent retreat; pupation in shelter usually transformed from larval retreat or in new retreat structurally similar to larval construction; hind wing crossvein PCu-1A thin, vertical.
