| Abstract;Two black-fly species belonging to the genus Stegopterna, St. trigonium (Lundstroem) and St. takeshii sp. nov., are described based on the reared adults, pupae, and mature larvae collected from Tochigi Prefecture in Honshu, Japan. Stegopterna trigonium, widely distributed in the Holarctic Region, is recorded for the first time from Japan. Stegopterna takeshii sp, nov. is characterized by the 12 pupal gill filaments arranged in two groups (seven filaments in the dorsal group, and five filaments in the ventral group). (author abst.) |
