| Summary: | Metriocnemus spp. Metriocnemus fuscipes Meig. sensu Lundström (1915: 17). Material examined. 1 ɗ (Metriocnemus eurynotus): RUSSIA: New Siberian Islands, west coast, 24 vi 1903, M. I. Brussnew. 1 ɗ (Metriocnemus brusti): same data. 1 ɗ, (Metriocnemus cf. ursinus): New Siberian Islands, south coast at "Holzgebirge”, 4 vii 1903, M. I. Brussnew. The Lundström collection contains about 40 males and females labelled as " M. fuscipes Meig. ” Only three of these were examined, none of them belongs to M. fuscipes (Meigen, 1818). One specimen fits well within the variation of M. eurynotus [= M. obscuripes] (Holmgren) (see Saether 1989, 1995), another fits M. brusti (Saether 1989). The third best fits M. ursinus (Holmgren) in Saether (1995). However, no virga was observed, and there are two setae on the anal lobe of the wing. If the virga really is absent the specimen represents a new species. The remaining Lundström specimens need to be examined in order to evaluate whether additional or even undescribed species are ... : Published as part of Saether, Ole A., 2004, The chironomids (Diptera, Chironomidae) described by Lundström (1915) from arctic Siberia, with a redescription of Derotanypus sibiricus (Kruglova & Chernovskii), pp. 1-35 in Zootaxa 595 on page 21, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.157906 ... |
