<strong>Caddisflies</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Yukon</strong> 819<br />
FIGS. 14 –15. Limnephilus santanus Ross (Limnephilidae) (OR: INHS). 14, Holotype male, genitalia: a, lateral; b,<br />
dorsal; c, caudal; d, phallus, lateral; e, phallus, dorsal; 15, Allotype female, genitalia: a, lateral; b, ventral.<br />
Ross (1949) stated that <strong>the</strong> type <strong>of</strong> L. fumosus is a female; however, a type has not been<br />
designated. Therefore, we select <strong>the</strong> following male from <strong>the</strong> type series as <strong>the</strong> lectotype <strong>of</strong><br />
Limnephilus fumosus (Banks, 1900): LECTOTYPE male: Alaska, Berg Bay, June 10 ’99;<br />
Harriman Expedition ’99, T. Kincaid, collector; #192, USNM Paratype (sensu cotype)<br />
No. 5262.<br />
Records confirmed for Limnephilus fumosus indicate that this species is known from<br />
Alaska, <strong>Yukon</strong>, and <strong>the</strong> Northwest Territories (NT: Midway L., 67°14′N 135°26′W,<br />
8.vii.1985, SMDV). A series in <strong>the</strong> ROME identified as L. santanus was cited by Nimmo<br />
and Wickstrom (1984: YT. Mirror Creek, Alaska Hwy. mile 1209, 28.vi.1958, ROME);<br />
<strong>the</strong>se specimens have been re-examined in light <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> information now available for <strong>the</strong>se<br />
2 species, and <strong>the</strong>y are L. fumosus. Nimmo’s list <strong>of</strong> Alaskan Trichoptera (1986) includes<br />
L. fumosus based on earlier records from <strong>the</strong> literature, and also L. santanus based on material
