Contulma paluguillensis (Trichoptera:Anomalopsychidae), a new caddisfly from the high Andes of Ecuador, and its natural history. Freshwater Science, 31(2), 442-450.https://hdl.handle.net/11299/189049Adults and larvae of a new species of Contulma Flint (Trichoptera:Anomalopsychidae) are described from Ecuador. The new species is similar to Contulma papallacta Holzenthal and Flint, but differs in having shorter, less spatulate dorsolateral processes and shorter setose lateral processes of segment IX in the male genitalia. Monthly Hess, sticky trap, and emergence-trap collections indicated that the new species is uncommon, probably univoltine, but with continuous larval growth and extended adult emergence, and has algivorous larvae.enAndean high altitude streamsaquatic macroinvertebratesautecologyspecies descriptionendemismlarvaemorphologyNeotropicstaxonomyContulma paluguillensis (Trichoptera:Anomalopsychidae), a new caddisfly from the high Andes of Ecuador, and its natural historyArticle10.1899/11-067.1
