  • am confused about the comment that they are sensitive to pollution. Almost all the paper I read and the sites where I collected caddisflies are highly polluted with trace metals. I think they made a mistake.

  • All hail the Tricoptera! Excellent video.

  • nice and cool

    

  • Very good video. I wonder if this is a selection from a longer video about macroinvertebrates. So informative!

  • nice... lol nerds

  • neat

  • Nice, but you fail to discuss the coolest of the caddisfly groups, the Anulipalpian families that make retreats with nets, including the Hydropsyches. Would love t see a vid of Hydropsychid net building behavior.
