  • diptera (true flies)? ♦ only a single pair of wings on the mesothorax ♦ hindwings have club-shaped remenants ♦ predators, herbivores, fungivores ♦ Nematocera (mosquitos) AND Brachycera (true flies) --> ectognatha, pterygota, endopterygota
  • trichoptera (caddisflies)? ♦ trich = hair, hairy wings ♦ moth-like ♦ wings pressed to the side of the body, whilst the antennae is directed forward in a downward curve ♦ aquatic larva ♦ aquatic herbivores and predators --> ectognatha, pterygota, endopterygota
  • lepidoptera (moths and butterflies)? ♦ only species with wings covered by scales ♦ adult have reduced mouthparts -> proboscis (sucking nectar) ♦ mostly herbivores, some predators --> ectognatha, pterygota, endopterygota
