*Little Black Caddisfly
This genus has not received any credit in angling books I've read, but entomologist Jason Robinson writes on the Troutnut forum that Agapetus is a common trout stream genus.

It is very easy for caddisflies to go unnoticed in the angling world, because they may be so easily mistaken for already well-known species by anglers with limited identification resources and tools.
