The Aoteapsyche is a genus consisting of net-spinning caddisflies. They are common among streams, and a few species occupy the shorelines of freshwater lakes. The larvae of the Aoteapsyche construct nets at the open ends of their dwellings which are responsible for their "net-spinning caddisfly" common name. | The Aoteapsyche is a genus consisting of net-spinning caddisflies.
