1839878A1257836281CAFF0FFAF0F8AC.taxon	biology_ecology	Biology and habitat: Larvae and pupae of G. kamael were found in a slow-flowing stream. The substrate of the stream was mainly cobblestones and sand (Fig. 1 B). The riparian vegetation types were meadow and shrub (Fig. 1 A). The larvae of G. kamael were grazing under or on the lateral surface of cobblestones (Fig. 1 C) where these scrapers were feeding on the algae attached on the surfaces of the cobblestones; pupae were attached to these stones.	en	Zang, Hao-Ming, Ge, Xin-Yu, Wang, Bei-Xin, Sun, Chang-Hai (2022): Description of adult female, larva, and pupa of Glossosoma (Lipoglossa) kamael Malicky 2012 (Trichoptera: Glossosomatidae) associated by COI sequences from China.

1839878A1257836281CAFF0FFAF0F8AC.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis Female: The female genitalia of G. kamael are similar to those of Glossosoma aveletum Ross & Hwang 1956 (female described by Yang & Morse 2002), but differ from those of the latter in that (1) segment VIII is slightly incised ventrally (segment VIII is deeply incised ventrally in G. aveletum); (2) the length of the spermathecal sclerite is about the same as that of segment VIII (at least twice as long as segment VIII in G. aveletum); (3) segment IX apodemes end at the anterior margins of segment VII (end at the middle of segment VII in G. aveletum). Larva: Glossosoma (Synafophora) intermedium is a Holarctic species that is widely distributed in the East Palearctic biogeographic region [China (Heilongjiang), Kazakhstan, Korea, Japan, Mongolia, Russia (Far East and Siberia)]. The frontoclypeus of G. intermedium can be distinguished from that of G. kamael by (1) the small denticle in each of the lateral concavities near the eyes of G. intermedium (smoothly concave, without denticles in G. kamael) and (2) the labrum of G. intermedium has protruding apicolateral angles, each with a tuft of fine setae (smoothly rounded without fine setae in G. kamael). The larva of G. kamael can be distinguished from larvae described for 9 species by 6 important distributional and morphological characteristics (Table 4). Pupa. In the East Palearctic biogeographic region, the pupa of G. kamael can be distinguished from that of G. intermedium in that (1) the terminal abdominal segment has 6 transversely arranged setae in G. intermedium (three setae are clustered on each of a pair of rounded lobes in G. kamel) and (2) the pupal shelter of G. intermedium has only small stones (the shelter of G. kamael has a pair of larger flat stones on sides). The pupa of G. kamael can be distinguished from those described for 4 other species by the shape of the hook plates, the hook numbers on each hook plate, and other characters (Table 5). Molecular association: A total of 16 COI sequences were aligned for constructing a NJ tree. The genetic distances are displayed at the nodes and rounded to 4 decimal places in Fig. 14. The analysis shows that COI sequence clusters were recovered for the two morphological species analyzed in Glossosoma. Female, larval, and pupal specimens were associated with adult males for G. kamael according to the criteria outlined by Zhou et al. (2007). The maximum genetic distances of all specimens in the G. kamael cluster were less than 0.48 %.	en	Zang, Hao-Ming, Ge, Xin-Yu, Wang, Bei-Xin, Sun, Chang-Hai (2022): Description of adult female, larva, and pupa of Glossosoma (Lipoglossa) kamael Malicky 2012 (Trichoptera: Glossosomatidae) associated by COI sequences from China.
