Description
TABLE 1. Discriminatory matrix for the Maghrebian Limnephilus larvae (final instars); references for larval characters (Hickin 1943; Cianficconi & Salerno 2003; Waringer & Graf 2011; Rinne & Wiberg-Larsen 2017; Waringer & Malicky 2019).
| Species | Face setae present or absent on mid- and/or hind femora | Head with pale areas around frontoclypeus | Setae number on each metanotum anterior median setal area (sa1) | Anal slit bordered by setae | Case composition | Case curved or straight | Additional characters |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mesophylax aspersus | Present | No | 4–6 | No | Small sand grains | Curved | No pale areas |
| Limnephilus alaicus | Present | No | N/a | N/a | Small sand grains and small plant particles | Straight | Pale areas of frontoclypeus all located between frontoclypeal sutures |
| Limnephilus barbagaensis | Absent | Yes | 4–6 | No | Small sand grains and/or gastropod shells | Nearly straight | Pale areas narrow, located mostly at posterior apex between frontoclypeal sutures |
| Limnephilus hirsutus | Present | No | 16–24 (sa1 areas fused) | Yes | Small sand grains | Curved | Head capsule uniformly dark. Anterior median sclerites (sa 1 sclerites) of metanotum poorly defined |
| Limnephilus lunatus | Absent | Yes | 5–11 | No | Plant material mostly; small sand grains occasionally | Straight | Pale areas distributed evenly along frontoclypeal sutures and varying from wide to very narrow |
| Limnephilus marmoratus | Present | No | 4–6 | N/a | Coarse plant material | Straight | Frontoclypeus with sharply angled median incisions. Claws of mid- and hindlegs at least half as long as tarsi |
