Abstract

Adults and larvae of the genus Hydropsyche from Yun-nan and Si-chuan Provinces, China, were examined and the COI barcode gene sequences were obtained and analyzed, adults and larvae of 3 species were successfully associated. Of them, H. uvana Mey 1995 is a new record for the Chinese caddisfly fauna. The larvae of H. cerva Li & Tian 1990, H. penicillata Martynov 1931, and H. uvana Mey 1995 are described for the first time. The diagnostic features of the species are described and illustrated.
