Limnephilus marmoratus (Caddisflies, reference) Assembly and Gene Annotation

About Limnephilus marmoratus

Limnephilus is a genus of caddisflies in the family Limnephilidae. There are over 180 species of Limnephilus, described between 1824 and 1999.

This genus is most important in lakes, spring ponds, and beaver ponds. Some of its species do well enough in spring creeks and slow pools to be important to trout there. Some Limnephilus species are multibrooded. It is fairly frequent in Leicestershire and Rutland, and common and widespread over much of Britain.

Limnephilus marmoratus is a member of the Limnephilidae family of caddisflies with about 100 genera. They belong to the main lineage of case-constructing caddisflies, the Integripalpia or tube-case caddisflies. The Limnephilidae is one of the most species-rich Trichoptera families of northern temperate regions, but only a few are known from tropical areas and the Southern Hemisphere. For this reason they are often known as northern caddisflies.
