NO. 3665 CADDISFLIES—FLINT 79 
Helicopsyche species 2 
Figure 231 
There is a distinct species on St. Lucia (and probably also on 
Grenada). Unfortunately, the genitalia of the only adult from St. 
Lucia were lost between preparation and illustration. Beyond the 
fact that the genitalia indicated that the species was quite distinctive, 
nothing more can be shown now. The larvae also seem to be distinct. 
Avutt.—Length of forewing 4 mm. Color in alcohol, pale brown. 
Larva.—Length (straightened) about 6 mm. Sclerites brown. 
Head with a ridge mesad of eyes, bridging the indentation of the 
frontoclypeal suture, and another slight ridge posteriad of eyes; 
frontoclypeus broadly indented at midlength. Pronotum sparsely 
setate, with anterior margin bearing a row of pale, bladelike setae 
on all but the central portion. Hind femur with about 15 setae. 
Casz.—Diameter 3-4 mm, height 2 mm. Made of sand grains, in 
typical snail-shell shape. About 3 whorls; umbilicus nearly closed. 
Anal aperture nearly central, spire moderately high. 
MareriAu.—st. Lucia, Vergallier River, near Marquis, 31 July 1963, Flint 
and Cadet, 1c (without abdomen), 12 larvae, 3 pupae; R. Galet, south of 
Dennery, 1 Aug. 1963, Flint and Cadet, 34 larvae, 5 pupae. 
Brotocy.—This species has been taken in two small, comparatively 
clear streams. They were attached to rocks in more slowly flowing 
pools in these streams.
