Pseudoneureclipsinae in Dipseudopsidae (Trichoptera : Hydropsychoidea), with descriptions of two new species of Pseudoneureclipsis from East Asia

A phylogenetic analysis of all known life history stages of Hydropsychoidea implies that Pseudoneureclipsinae should be removed from Polycentropodidae and placed in Dipseudopsidae. Two synapomorphies especially informative fo r this conclusion are the fused condition of female sternum VIII sclerites and the presence of a long larval spinneret without labial palpi. A new spe cies, Pseudoneureclipsis tiani Li, sp. n., is described, representing the f irst report of this genus from China. A male lectotype and two male paralec totypes of P. ussuriensis Martynov are designated from the Primorye Region of Far East Russia and distinguished from specimens described but not named by Botosaneanu in 1970 from Korea. These latter are herein named Pseudoneu reclipsis botosaneanui Morse, sp. n.
