Abstract

Two new species of caddisflies, Lype lubaretsi n. sp. (Psychomyiidae) and Molanna byssa n. sp. (Molannidae), are described and illustrated from Amurskaya Oblast, the Far East of Russia. Six species of caddisflies: Stenopsyche coreana (Kuwayama 1930) (Stenopsychidae), Psychomyiella cruciata Kumanski 1992 (Psychomyiidae), Brachypsyche schmidi Choe, Kumanski and Woo 1999 (Limnephilidae), Adicella longiramosa Yang and Morse 2000, Athripsodes ceracleoides Kumanski 1991 and Leptocerus biwae (Tsuda 1942) (Leptoceridae) are new records for the Russian caddisfly fauna. In addition, the male of A. longiramosa is reillustrated in light of the newly collected material and compared with the original description.
