Psectrocladius (Psectrocladius) sokolovae Zelentsov & Makarchenko, 1988: 40 Orthocladius pubitarsis Zett. sensu Lundström (1915: 9) not Chironomus pubitarsis Zetterstedt, 1838: 821. Material examined. RUSSIA: New Siberian Islands, south coast of Kotelnyj Island, 2 ɗ, 23–24 vi 1903, A. W. Koltschak & P. W. Olenin. The specimens key to P. (P.) barbimanus (Edwards) in Wülker (1956) and Langton (1980). However, Zelentsov & Makarchenko (1988) erected the species P. sokolovae differing in among other features a slightly higher antennal ratio and higher numbers of setae The present specimens have numbers of dorsocentrals, scutellars, setae on tergite IX, and length of the anal point as in P. sokolovae, while the number of clypeal setae (13–22) are within the variation of P. barbimanus (11–21, while 28–35 in P. sokolovae). The antennal ratio is about 2.5–3.1 in the present specimens, 3.0– 3.05 in P. sokolovae, 2.4–2.8 in P. barbimanus according to Zelentsov & Makarchenko (1988).
