Abstract

New taxa of caddisflies, Pardoferus vitimicus gen. et sp. nov., Baissoferus elegans sp. nov. (Baissoferidae), Aniburia hirta gen. et sp. nov. (Calamoceratidae) and Juraphilopotamus heteroclitus sp. nov. (Philopotamidae), are described from the Aptian of Baissa in Transbaikalia. Baissoferus sinitsae is transferred to the genus Pardoferus. A key to species of Baissoferus is provided. The global distribution over time and space of fossil Calamoceratidae is reviewed.
