THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST 205 



Hydromanicus, A ntarcto psyche, Symphitopsyche and Stenopsyche. 

 This latter genus has been placed in the Philopotamidae since it 

 has ocelli, but is more allied to Hydropsyche by all other characters. 

 The Psychomyini will include, besides the usual genera, 

 Ecnomus; it was also placed here by MacLachlan. Tinodes is 

 removed to the next tribe. 



The Polycentropini, besides the usual genera, includes Tinodes; 

 this move is also warranted by the structure of the male genitalia. 



The Philopotamini has the usual genera, as placed by Dr. 

 Ulmer, but without Stenopsyche.
