Abstract
A new caddisfly species Holocentropus tutkaktut sp. nov. (Polycentropodidae) is described from Priabonian Rovno amber (Upper Eocene, 33.9–37.8 million years old). With the new species, the family Polycentropodidae is represented in Rovno amber by 19 species, and the genus Holocentropus McLachlan, 1878, by nine species.
