The genus Kincaidiana has two described species, both of which vary morphologically, and may represent species complexes. Literature records of Kincaidiana freidris are limited to three sites, one of which is Mason Fen (Erman and Erman, 1975). Recent collections indicate three basic morphological types, corresponding to inland mountains, Coast Ranges, and coastal Washington. The Mason Fen population has an intermediate location, and needs to be reevaluated in comparison to the other collections. My goal is to obtain a series of mature K. freidris, using a dip net or corer to collect sediment in Mason Fen. The time of year the population has mature individals is unknown, so repeated trips may be necessary. Up to 1 square meter of benthic sediment may be disturbed.
