Simulium (Gomphostilbia) fukudae sp. nov. is described based on females, males, pupae, and larvae from Thailand. This new species is placed in the Simulium batoense species-group of Simulium (Gomphostilbia). It is characterized by the female frons almost bare, male paramere covered with minute setae, pupal gill composed of six slender filaments, pupal terminal hooks cone-shaped, and cocoon with an anterodorsal projection. Taxonomic notes are given to separate this new species from the most similar species, Simulium (G.) sextuplum Takaoka & Davies and Simulium (G.) paukatense Takaoka, both from Malaysia.
基于采自泰国的雌虫、雄虫、蛹和幼虫,描述了新物种福氏蚋(Simulium (Gomphostilbia) fukudae sp. nov.)。这个新物种被归入蚋属(Simulium (Gomphostilbia))的巴托蚋物种组。其特征为雌虫额部几乎无毛,雄虫阳茎覆有微小刚毛,蛹鳃由六根细长丝组成,蛹末端钩呈锥形,茧具一个前背突。给出了分类学注释,以将这个新物种与最相似的物种——同样来自马来西亚的六重蚋(Simulium (G.) sextuplum Takaoka & Davies)和保卡蚋(Simulium (G.) paukatense Takaoka)区分开来。
