Abstract

Simulium (Gomphostilbia) maleewongae sp. nov. is described based on the adult males and females, their pupal exuviae, and larvae from Thailand. This new species is placed in the Simulium gombakense species-group of Simulium (Gomphostilbia). It is characterized by the female cibarium with a cup-like appendage, male ventral plate deeply depressed ventromedially, pupal gill composed of an inflated structure and eight slender filaments, cone-shaped pupal terminal hooks, and cocoon with an anterodorsal projection. Taxonomic notes are given to separate this new species from 10 other species of the same species-group known from China, India, Malaysia, Thailand, Nepal, and Vietnam. Keys to identify all 11 species of the S. gombakense species-group are provided for females, males, pupae, and larvae.

摘要

基于采自泰国的成虫雌雄个体、蛹蜕及幼虫，描述了新物种马来吴氏蚋Simulium (Gomphostilbia) maleewongae。该新物种被置于蚋属（绳蚋亚属）的贡巴克蚋物种组。其特征为：雌虫下咽具杯状附属物；雄虫腹板在腹中线处深陷；蛹鳃由一个膨胀结构和八根细长丝组成；蛹的末端钩呈锥形；茧具一个前背突。给出了分类学注释，以将该新物种与已知分布于中国、印度、马来西亚、泰国、尼泊尔和越南的同物种组的其他10个物种区分开来。提供了贡巴克蚋物种组所有11个物种的雌虫、雄虫、蛹和幼虫的鉴别检索表。
