The larval stage of the endemic species remainsespecially unknown. This study was carried out in Araç Creek between April and October 2013 and it is the first study todetermine the caddisfly fauna in Araç Creek. Fourteen caddisflies taxa belonging to nine genera within eight different families(Brachycentridae, Hydropsychidae, Hydroptilidae, Lepidostomatidae, Leptoceridae, Limnephilidae, Psychomyiidae andRhyacophilidae) were identified. Four of these taxa have previously been recorded from the creek and the other ten taxa arenew records for the study area while Micrasema cinereum Mosely is the first record for the Trichoptera fauna of Turkey. As aresult of the study, the number of caddisfly taxa in Turkey is now 501, with the addition of M. cinereum.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRESEARCH10.23902/trkjnat.484166WOS:00049057090000135325581818787202528-9691
