The homogeneity of the Simuliidae family has produced several taxonomic problems along the years. The studies of Brazilian Simulium Latreille, 1802 date from the beginning of the 20th century, with species described by Kollar, Macquart, Goeldi and Lutz. Lutz's scientific collection is a historical relic of scientific relevance, since it congregates types described from Brazil. Besides its taxonomic importance, this collection can now be used as a bio indicator. However, a lot of these slide-mounted specimens could not support the effects of time, constant handling, fungus and climatic conditions that occurred over the years. The development of a slide-mounted restoration technique had therefore become necessary for specimen preservation and observation. A homogeneidade da família Simuliidae tem resultado problemas taxonômicos ao longo dos anos. Os estudos sobre Simulium Latreille, 1802 no Brasil datam do início do século XX, com espécies descritas por Kollar, Macquart, Goeldi e Lutz. A coleção de Lutz possui relevância científica e histórica, possuindo exemplares tipo descritos do Brasil. Além da importância taxonômica, a coleção de simulídeos de Lutz pode ser usada como bioindicadora. No entanto, muitas lâminas não suportaram os efeitos do tempo, constante manuseio, presença de fungos e ação das condições climáticas ao longo dos anos. O desenvolvimento de uma técnica de restauração do material preservado em lâminas fez-se necessário para melhor preservação e observação do material
