Taxonomy and Ecology of Three New Species of Monodiamesa Kieffer, with Keys to Nearctic and Palaearctic Species of the Genus (Diptera: Chironomidae)
Three Nearctic species of Monodiamesa are described: Monodiamesa depectinata sp.n. from male imagines, pupa, and fourth- and third-instar larvae; Monodiamesa tuberculata sp.n. from imagines, pupae, and fourth- and third-instar larvae; and Monodiamesa prolilobata sp.n. from male imagines. A larva pos...
