Name
Dicrotendipes flexus (Johannsen, 1932) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Chironomus (Limnochironomus) flexus Johannsen, 1932: 530.
- Limnochironomus flexus: Lenz 1937[1]: 6.
- Dicrotendipes flexus: Hashimotoet al. 1981[2]: 14; Epler 1988[3]: 128; Wanget al. 1990[4]: 29; Wang 2000[5]: 643.
Specimens examined
China, Hubei: 5♂♂, Wuhan City, Donghu Lake, 30°35.06’N, 114°22.42’E, 22.iv.1977, Wang SD sweeping method; Guangdong: 2♂♂, Fengkai County, Heishiding Nature Conservation Area, 23°29.14’N, 111°50.54’E, 18.iv.1988, Wang XH, light trap; Shandong: 1 ♂, Yantai City, Kunyu Mountain, 37°23.53’N, 121°36.42’E, 24.viii.1987, Wang XH, sweeping method.
Remarks
Dicrotendipes flexus (Johannsen) closely resembles Dicrotendipes nervosus (Staeger) in the structure of hypopygium, but can be separated by the apparently disjunct distributions and fewer setae on R and R1, (21−26 in Dicrotendipes flexus, more than 35 in Dicrotendipes nervosus). All examined Chinese specimens comply with the description of Johannsen (1932)[6] and Hashimoto et al. (1981)[2].
Distribution
China (Hubei, Guangdong and Shandong Province); Australia; Japan; Indonesia.
