“…This synonymy could be reconsidered if male, pupal and larval stages of S. albopictum are found. Coscaron & Miranda-Esquivel (1998) Thyrsopelma sensu Coscaron occurs from the southeast of Brazil to Amazonia, the Guyanas and southern Venezuela (guianense), and west to Paraguay and eastern Argentina (orbitale). Some species of S. Thyrsopelma, such as guianense shows high anthropophily.…”

A cladistic analysis of Simulium (Trichodagmia) sensu Crosskey and Howard, using 34 morphological characters of larvae (6 characters), pupa (5) and adults (23), yields nine most parsimonious trees under equal weights (length 101 steps CI 0.49 RI 0.73). Successive weighting based on the maximal rescaled consistency index preferred one of the nine (31.37 steps CI 0.62 RI 0.87 total fitcon3=235.8), which was also one of two trees found under implicit weights with concavity values of 3-6. The cladogram justifies the recognition of two subgenera. Simulium ( P ichodagmia) sensu strict0 (containing S. muiscorum, sumapazense, s. wygodzinskyorum, S. nigrimanum, S. chalcocoma, S. huairayacu and S. lahillei) is supported by the branchial tip sclerotization and the presence of cibarial teeth, larval body tegument covered with lanceolate hairs, female with simple claw, and gonapophysis size. Simulium (Thyrsopelma) (containing S. scutistriatum, S. hirtipupa, S. orbitale, S. guianense, S. perplexum and S. itaunense) is supported by the hypostomial teeth. 0 2001 The Linnean Society of London ADDITIONAL KEY WORDS: monophyly -neotropical simuliids -equal weights -successive weighting -implicit weights.
