03966709C8367E50FC2FFAD2EA33FD24.taxon	description	Biological remarks: Müller (1879 a, b) provided the first records of the habitat of larvae, including their occurrence in small waterfalls and rock surfaces in fast flowing waters of small mountain streams. These observations were corroborated by others authors (e. g. Holzenthal, 1988 a; Flint et al., 1999). In our fieldwork, the larvae (and pupae) were often collected from aggregations of more than 50 individuals positioned side by side or in a small clump (e. g. Parque Estadual de Campos do Jordão, São Paulo State, Brazil). Müller (1879 a, b) also observed the use of the posterior silken projection on the larval cases to help to hold the larva in the current. The ability of larvae to maintain position in fast flow is aided by the stout legs with modified tarsal claws, as emphasized by Holzenthal (1988 a) and by other authors observing larvae of other grumichelline genera (St. Clair, 1994; Ward, 2001). Müller (1879 a, b) ‘ speculated’ that the water current prevented the pupae from crawling out of the case, and that the anterior attachment pedicle of the case needed to be severed by the emerging pupae. The loose case then drifted to slack current, where the adult could emerge (Holzenthal, 1988 a). In laboratory rearings and rarely in natural habitats (e. g. G. boraceia sp. nov.), a behaviour of flotation and drift was observed in the fifth instar larvae, with air bubbles inside the anterior portions of cases (our pers. observ.). The use of abandoned larval cases by other genera of caddisflies is not uncommon, especially in Triplectides (Holzenthal, 1988 b; Flint et al., 1999; Crisci-Bispo, Bispo & Froehlich, 2004; Calor & Froehlich, 2008), and includes observations by A. R. C. and by P. A. Rueda- Martín (pers. commun.) in Brazil and Argentina, respectively, of Marilia (Odontoceridae) occupying Grumichella cases.	en	Calor, Adolfo R., Holzenthal, Ralph W., Froehlich, Claudio G.

03966709C8247E41FCA2FB8AEA45FD9E.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis: Grumichella muelleri can be diagnosed by the following characters: male forewings with 3 brown spots; male genitalia bearing segment X rectangular, with posterolateral border developed, dorsal view; without sulcus on the apex of segment X; 1 st article of inferior appendage without basomesal protuberance; 2 nd article of inferior appendage shorter than apicodorsal portion of 1 st article; apex of 2 nd article acuminated, curved mesad.

Adult: Head and body yellowish brown. Male: Forewing length: 6 – 7 mm. Forewing light golden brown, with 3 small brown spots, without dark setae on posterodorsal margin. Male genitalia as in Figure 12. Abdominal segment IX annular; in dorsal view, with anterior margin slightly concave, posterior margin slightly angulate; in lateral view, pleural region sparsely setose; tergum IX without protuberances dorsally. Preanal appendage setose, at least 4 × as long as wide; in lateral view, clavate, apex acute. Segment X saddleshaped; in lateral view not flattened, dorsal margin slightly concave, ventral margin abruptly convex; segment X in dorsal view, rectangular, with posterolateral borders not developed, lateral margins sinuate, with apicodorsal shelf, shelf almost rectangular, but sometimes varying to rounded, almost as wide as apex of segment X, without sulcus apically. Inferior appendage slightly concave in ventral view, with basal region enlarged; rounded basally, heavily setose, especially apically, not bearing a basomesal pro- tuberance; middle region of inferior appendage without constriction before apicodorsal region; 2 nd article shorter than apicodorsal portion of 1 st article, broad basally, tapering throughout length, mesal surface not excavate, apex pointed, curved mesally; apicordorsal portion of 1 st article digitate, setose. Phallic apparatus simple, phallicata nearly straight; with pair of subequal, wide, posterodorsally directed lateral flanges, apices acuminate; phallotremal sclerites small, C-shaped. Female: Head and body yellowish. Forewing length: 5 – 7 mm. Forewing yellowish to brown, without dark setae on posterodorsal region. Genitalia as in Figure 13, inseparable among the congeners. Abdominal segment IX lightly sclerotized, with dorsal plate, bearing a pair of setose protuberances above appendages of segment X, appendages of segment X small; valves flat, thin, lightly sclerotized, with very short setae. Etymology: The specific epithet is inhonor of the naturalist Fritz Müller, the ‘ prince of observers’, according to Charles Darwin. Müller was a pioneer in studies of Neotropical caddisflies (among other taxa), including the description of the genus Grumichella. He was an important collaborator and supporter of Darwin’s theory of evolution, especially by means of Müller’s book ‘ Für Darwin’ (1864) and its translations. Distribution: Brazil.
