Abstract

The updated checklist of caddisflies (Trichoptera) of Lithuania includes 173 species and 1 subspecies. During the current study (1987–2007), 151 caddisfly species and 1 subspecies were recorded. Among them, four species are new for the Lithuanian fauna: Hydroptila vectis Curtis, 1834, Hydropsyche Saxonica McLachlan, 1884, Apatania wallengreni McLachlan, 1871, and Ceraclea excise (Morton, 1904). For 20 species that were not observed during the current study, there are historical records available, which were published before 1969. One new species has been reported recently. However, this record warrants verification. Information on caddisfly distribution and rarity is presented.
