Abstract

A rearing chamber designed for extended field rearing of caddisflies was used successfully during the summers of 2011 and 2012. Species belonging to seven caddisfly families were reared successfully. Rearing techniques, chamber construction and operation is discussed. Lessons learned and results are presented. The design of this rearing chamber enabled the first association of the larva and pupa of Ecclisomyia bilera and Oligophlebodes sierra.
