Leptoceroidea

Belongs within: Integripalpia.
Contains: Sericostomatoidea, Leptoceridae.

The Leptoceroidea are a group of caddisflies with the base of vein 2A in the forewing anal loop separated by a jugal fold (Ivanov & Sukatsheva 2002). Leptoceroidea may be paraphyletic with regard to the Sericostomatoidea. Larvae of both superfamilies bear forked gills on the eighth segment only; the Gilson glands on the prothorax are reduced and the hind legs are turned upwards and adopt their sensory function (Ivanov & Sukatsheva 2002).

Synapomorphies (from Ivanov & Sukatsheva 2002, for Leptoceroidea + Sericostomatoidea): Larva with forked lamellae only on segment 8; Gilson glands reduced on prosternum, hind legs adopting sensory function and turned upwards.
