This reference book comprehensively delves into the systematics, taxonomy, morphology, ecology, and behaviour of the Lepidostomatidae (Trichoptera) in India. The chapters cover biogeography and distribution patterns, conservation status, functional traits, and management of Lepidostomatidae. The book also provides insights into the morphological and molecular techniques employed for identification, allowing for a deeper understanding of the intricate characteristics that define the caddisflies. The work examines detailed methods for the collection, preservation, and identification of Lepidostomatidae specimens. It also examines the threats faced by Trichoptera, particularly Lepidostomatidae, and sheds light on the challenges that endanger their survival in the current scenario of climate change.Features:Covers biogeography, distribution patterns, and conservation status of Lepidostomatidae in IndiaFocuses on functional traits and management strategies of Lepidostomatidae caddisfliesProvides insights into morphological and molecular techniques for accurate identification of Lepidostomatidae caddisfliesProvides methods for collection, preservation, and identification of Lepidostomatidae specimensExplores the crucial roles Lepidostomatidae in aquatic ecosystemsExamines threats and challenges endangering the survival of Trichoptera, including LepidostomatidaeIn the final section, the book explores the crucial roles Lepidostomatidae played in aquatic ecosystems.
