Poxyaibamberus Andersen & Dantas, gen. nov. (Diptera, Chironomidae, Orthocladiinae) from Brazil
No full textPoxyaibamberus Andersen & Dantas, gen. nov. is erected based on the males of two species, P. jamanximensis Andersen & Dantas, sp. nov. from Jamanxim National Park, Pará State, Brazil, and P. ubajarensis Andersen & Dantas, sp. nov. from Ubajara National Park, Ceará State, Brazil. Both species have a comparatively short and wide head, with large eyes and short, five-segmented palps; a strong subapical seta on the ultimate flagellomere; scalpellate acrostichals; no setae on the wing veins except for one seta on the brachiolum; a long costal extension; and a large triangular anal point and a very long heel on the gonostylus. The systematic position of the new genus is briefly discussed

Type material, as in Andersen & Saether (1996). Diagnostic characters. The species belongs in the parcus group. The male can be separated from all other members of the genus by the needle shaped median volsella with basal seta. Description. The species was described in detail by Andersen & Saether (1996). Distribution. The species is recorded from Costa Rica and Mexico (Andersen & Saether 1996).Published as part of Pinho, Luiz Carlos, Mendes, Humberto Fonseca & Andersen, Trond, 2013, Revision of Beardius Reiss et Sublette, 1985 (Diptera: Chironomidae), with the description of twenty new species, pp. 1-78 in Zootaxa 3742 (1) on page 20, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3742.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/527089
