Costa Rica caddisfly: Polycentropodidae


Chimarra sp.

Ralph Holzenthal says: "This is a species very close to Chimarra bicolor. In his 1998 monograph Roger concluded that Costa Rican "bicolor" were slightly, but diagnostically different and put them in a new species, Chimarra adelphe, but you should read his diagnosis and description of the species. With more material, might turn out to be a variant of bicolor."
