New neotropical species of Nandeva (Diptera: Chironomidae), with a phylogeny of the Tanytarsini

“…Also included in the analysis are Pseudochironomus Malloch, 1915 and most of the presumed basal genera of the Chironomini, including those mentioned by Cranston (1999) as possible sister genera of Nandeva. The scoring of characters mostly is based on Pinder & Reiss (1983, 1986, Cranston et al (1989), Saether (1977) and Saether et al (2000) supplemented with descriptions of non-Holarctic genera and species in Reiss (1972Reiss ( , 1984, Lehmann (1973), Säwedal (1981Säwedal ( , 1982, Tokunaga (1938), Trivinho-Strixino & Strixino (1995, 2000, Ekrem & Reiss (1999), Reiff (2000), Epler (2001) etc., as well examination of some material in the collection of the Museum of Zoology in Bergen. Table 2 presents the characters and states with comments used in the phylogenetic analyses.…”

“…The difference between the different results of parsimony analyses primarily is a consequence of lacking knowledge of the female imagines and immature stages. Cladotanytarsus and Nimbocera Reiss, 1972 are the only genera of variable placement of which all stages are known. They both are members of the Tanytarsus group when characters not are reweighed, of the Micropsectra group when characters are reweighed.…”

Chironomidae (Insecta, Diptera, Nematocera) do Estado de São Paulo, Sudeste do Brasil

“…C 3 -As larvas e fêmeas de Beardius cristhinae foram descritas recentemente por Pinho (2010). C 4 -No passado Tanytarsus rhabdomantis (Trivinho-Strixino & Strixino, 1991) e Caladomyia ortoni Säwedal, 1981 foram erroneamente alocados dentro do gênero Nimbocera Reiss, 1972, com base na característica de anelação do pecíolo do órgão de Lauterborn presente na antena da larva e considerada diagnóstica do gênero. A anelação do pecíolo e/ou de segmentos antenais não é característica única para o gênero Nimbocera ocorrendo também em outras espécies de Tanytarsus como T. limneticus Sublette, 1964 e T. obiriciae Trivinho- Strixino & Sonoda, 2006.…”

Com base nisso, Nimbocera patagonica Reiss, 1972, registrada para o sul do Chile e Argentina, foi transferida por para o gênero Tanytarsus van der Wulp, 1874.…”

The zoogeographical distribution of Chironomidae (Insecta : Diptera)

“…Fittkau and Reiss in several publications have dealt with the subfami lies Tanypodinae and Chironominae in the Amazon basin but as yet only a small fraction of the known species have been described. Reiss ( 1972) Chironominae would probably constitute about 10-12 %, the Tanypodinae about 6-8 % and the Prodiamesinae about 1 % or less. The subfamily Chile nomyiinae is only recently described (Brundin 1983a), probably occurs in flowing water, and is included in the table for the sake of completeness.…”
