# "...not an exhaustive monograph but rather a handbook by means of which collectors may identify their captures and thereby complete a knowledge of the fauna of their districts. The classification of the Trichoptera is based on neuration and the structure of the genitalia rather than on wing-markings, and consequently the author has relied upon figures of those characteristics, numbering no fewer than 633, with three plates reproduced from photographs from nature".
