The Specimen
Apatania (Early Smoky Wing Sedges) Caddisfly Adult
View 7 PicturesThis one actually had a medium tan body when it emerged. By the time I took the picture it was dark as night. I was actually looking through my box of specimens trying to figure out where that tan one I caught disappeared to. Then I realized this is it.

| Centennial CO Posts: 35 | Folks - This is another I would call Brachycentrus. You can definitely see the maxillary palps folded up in front of the face. And a note on Apatania - the eastern species are down to two - incerta and nigra. A.blacki, praevolans and rossi were all recently sunk under A. incerta. (Flint 2007 Proc. Ent. Soc.
