Nice pic - Phanocelia canadensis. I am not aware of any published records for Phanocelia from Maine so looks you may have a new state record (but not unexpected) for a caddisfly. It would be good to have a specimen in hand to be sure but this critter is pretty distinct. Length (head to wingtip) would also help to verify the determination.

Thank you

I am not finding anything on BugGuide for Phanocelia canadensis, nor for the genus Phanocelia, do pages need to be created?

I can do that

but I need to know the tribe that Phanocelia canadensis falls under

Limnephilidae: Limnephilinae: Chilostigmini

For now you can obtain current higher taxonomy (and a lot more)for all caddis at: http://entweb.sites.clemson.edu/database/trichopt/searchResults.php?offset=1
