Family Philopotamidae

Wormaldia cf. occipitalis ( Pictet 1834)

Yabous: 06.vi.2019, 1 larva.

The only larva collected did not allow identification to species with certainty. The larva resembles that of W. occipitalis , but adult material is needed to confirm the presence of this species in the area. In addition, the fact that many species of the genus cannot yet be identified as larvae, including the endemic W. algirica , makes the identification to species very difficult.
