Leptocerina is an endemic Afrotropical genus of Trichoptera, with 19 species documented but only five partially described at the larval stage. The first description of Leptocerina pauliani (Ross 1957) larva by Marlier Marlier (1982) included very few illustrations, making comparisons with other species challenging. I present a revised description of the L. pauliani larval stage, using specimens collected from the River Marsouins in La Réunion Island. I apply a focus stacking approach for emphasizing coloration patterns and providing a detailed description of larval characters. Criteria for distinguishing L. pauliani from the other species of Leptocerina already described or partially described for the larval stage are discussed.
瘦角蝉属 Leptocerina 是一个非洲特有种的毛翅目 Trichoptera 属，有 19 种已被记录，但只有 5 种在幼虫阶段部分描述过。Marlier Marlier（1982）首次描述了 Leptocerina pauliani（Ross 1957）幼虫，只包含了非常少的插图，这使得与其他物种的比较变得具有挑战性。我使用从留尼汪岛的 Marsouins 河采集的标本，对 L. pauliani 幼虫阶段进行了修订描述。我采用了焦点堆叠方法来强调颜色模式，并提供了幼虫特征的详细描述。讨论了区分 L. pauliani 与其他已描述或部分描述为幼虫阶段的 Leptocerina 物种的标准。
