DNA barcodes successfully delimit morphospecies in a superdiverse insect genus

Nine species complexes with deep intraspecific divergences indicated 18 potentially cryptic species, which require further taxonomic research including complete life histories and nuclear genetic data to be resolved.

Thienemanniella Kieffer from East Asia, with a systematic review of the genus (Diptera: Chironomidae: Orthocladiinae)

Parsimony analyses of species of Thienemanniella and Onconeura Andersen et Saether including Corynoneurella Brundin, Tempisquitoneura Epler and Ubatubaneura Wiedenbrug et Trivinho-Strixino are performed showing that ThienEManniella afra Lehmann belongs to Cory Noneurella and that other ThienEmanniella species with bare eyes may belong to OnconeURA.

The Pupa and Larva of Propsilocerus taihuensis (Wen, Zhou & Rong) (Diptera: Chironomidae), with Complete Keys to all Immatures of the Genus Propsilocerus

The pupa and larva of Propsilocerus taihuensis (Wen, Zhou & Rong, 1994) are described for the first time. Both are close to P. akamusi (Tokunaga). The phylogenetic argumentation of the genus outlined…

Exploring the utility of DNA barcoding in species delimitation of Polypedilum (Tripodura) non-biting midges (Diptera: Chironomidae).

The results supported DNA barcoding as an ideal method to detect cryptic species, delimit sibling species, and associate different life stages in non-biting midges.

First complete mitogenomes of Diamesinae, Orthocladiinae, Prodiamesinae, Tanypodinae (Diptera: Chironomidae) and their implication in phylogenetics

The results indicate that mitogenomes showed poor signals in phylogenetic reconstructions at the subfamily level of Chironomidae, which is inconsistent with previous morphological and molecular studies.
