Autapomorphy of Baetisca/f4=g3. (1) Mature larva has a pair of frontal projections between antennae bases ventrad of lateral ocelli (Pescador & Peters 1974: Fig.15:I-J); in different species these projections have form from small protuberances to large denticles (Pescador & Berner 1981: Fig.10-12a,13-14), but are absent in young larvae (Pescador & Peters 1974: Fig.10-11). Character of Baetisca/f4=g3 of unclear phylogenetic status. (2) Larval notal shield [see Baetisca/f3=g2 (4)] is strongly convex (unlike Fascioculus). Plesiomorphy of Baetisca/f4=g3. Unlike Fascioculus, eyes are uniformly coloured. |
Size. Fore wing length 6–16 mm.
Distribution. Nearctic (dominate in Eastern Nearctic).
