Key to Larvae of North American
Philopotamidae
Genera.
The following key is modified from that of
Morse
et al.
(2019)
. Figures
19.360
–19.366
refer to those of
Morse
et al.
(2019)
; figures 8.1A–8.1C, 8.1F, 8.2B–
8.2E
, 8.3C–
8.3E
refer to those of
Wiggins (1996)
; figure 1B refers to that of
Weaver
et al.
(1981)
.
Figures 1–12
are original in this paper. The larvae of the purported eastern population of
Sisko
are currently unknown.
1 Prothoracic coxae each with long slender, subapicodorsal process bearing apical seta (figs 19.364, 8.1C); foretrochantins small and scarcely projecting (fig. 8.1A); anterior margin of frontoclypeus with prominent notch, typically asymmetrically right of midline (fig. 8.1B); head with setae number 18 at level of posterior point of ventral apotome (figs 19.365, 8.1F); widespread.....................................................................................

Stephens
- Prothoracic coxae without long subapicodorsal processes; foretrochantins small and not projecting (figs 8.3D,

) or elongate and finger-like (figs 19.363; 8.2C, 8.2D); anterior margin of frontoclypeus variable, prominently notched, slightly sinuous, or completely symmetrical; head with setae number 18 approximately halfway between posterior point of ventral apotome and occipital foramen (figs 19.366;
8.2E
, 8.3C).................................................................

2 Foretrochantins small, scarcely projecting (figs 8.3D,
8.3E

3 Anterior margin of frontoclypeus symmetrical or asymmetrically concave on right (figs 19.361; 8.2B;
