Genus Antillocladius Saether, 1981 View in CoL

A genus of 30 named species that occur mostly in the Neotropical region, but are also found in the Nearctic, Palaearctic, and Oriental regions ( Ashe & O’Connor 2012; Andersen & Hagenlund 2017). The genus was reviewed by Mendes et al. (2004, 2011) and Mendes & Andersen (2008). Known larvae from South America appear to be terrestrial or semi-terrestrial as they have been collected in moss and lichens on stones and tree trunks; a North American species has been found in seeps near streams and impoundments ( Mendes et al. 2004; Andersen et al. 2013).
