About the catalogue
This catalog compiles the species of Trichoptera distributed in Argentina and Uruguay. This information is based on specialized bibliography and unpublished records from collecting trips made by the authors. In southern South America, the greatest diversity of species occurs in the Parana Forest, Las Yungas, and the Valdivian Forest, being the Argentine Patagonia of particular interest due to the high degree of endemism it harbors at species and genera level (around 84% of the species and 50% of the genera are endemic). For each of the species, information is provided about the type material, synonyms, distribution, whether immature stages have been described, and main bibliographical references. In addition, photographs or drawings of the habitus or genitalia of the species are provided whenever they are available.
