Abstract

Simulium (Simulium) chungi sp. nov. is described based on adult, pupal and larval specimens collected from Taiwan. This is assigned to the griseifrons species-group, and is very similar to S. (S.) taipokauense Takaoka, Davies and Dudgeon, described from males collected from Hong Kong but there are differences in several morphological features including the relative length of the first flagellar segment of the antenna to the second one, the shape and size of the sensory vesicle, and the color of the midlegs.
