. Bulletin. Natural history; Natural history. August, 1944 Ross: Caddis Flies of Illinois 215. CANDIDA 75IC DIARINA SPILOMA Figs. 749-753.—Leptocella, male genitalia. A, lateral aspect; B, claspers; C, styles at base of claspers. species which have not yet been investigated sufficiently to determine their status. Such forms as coloradensis, iii/ervena and minuta have not been satisfactorily diagnosed. I have been unable to find any appreciable difference in the male genitalia of these. Experience with the Illinois fauna leads me to believe that until cultures of these other species are reared, or until additional adult characters are found, it will be unwise to attempt definite placement of these names. There is a very good possibility that many of them represent distinct species. Not until we know how many species exist and what are their limits can we satisfactorily diag- nose them.
