The following order closely related to Glossata is Trichoptera.
Trichoptera, or caddisflies, are an order of aquatic insects occurring around the world in rivers, streams, and lakes. About 15,000 species are known. The aquatic larvae use silk to construct cases in which they reside or to spin silken nets to capture food suspended in the water column.
Larvae of members of the family Glossosomatidae in the suborder Spicipalpia create dome-shaped enclosures of silk which enables them to graze on the periphyton, the biological film that grows on stones and other objects, while carrying their enclosure around like turtles.
