Arctic species of the subgenus Symplecta sensu stricto (Diptera: Limoniidae)
Abstract Species of the subgenus Symplecta Meigen with Arctic, or at least partly Arctic, distributions are revised. Five species are redescribed: S. ( S. ) novaezemblae (Alexander), S. ( S. ) scotica (Edwards), S. ( S. ) mabelana (Alexander), S. ( S. ) sheldoni (Alexander), and S. ( S. ) horrida (L...
