Abstract
The BOLD dataset "DS-POLYCSS Nearctic Polycentropodidae (Trichoptera)" contains publicly accessible molecular data and associated voucher collection data. Data include two loci (nuclear 28s rRNA D2 and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase C (COI)), specimen images, collection data, and additional specimen data. Data pertain to hundreds of treated specimens and dozens of treated species, of different life stages and both sexes, of the Trichoptera family Polycentropodidae in the Nearctic, with an emphasis on Polycentropus sensu lato. Data will continued to be added during continued systematic studies of the family by the authors.
