                   A.P. Nimmo, November, 2001

List of Trichoptera spp known from Alberta, or with reasonable probability of being found in Alberta.
Alphabetised by family and, within tribes, by genera and species. Subfamilies/tribes are not alphabetised within families.
To date this list and related files record
16 families& 219 species. The major exception is the Hydroptilidae, for which only one species can be listed at this time - although the family will almost certainly prove prodigal.
