چکیده
Based upon the detailed chromosome map of polytene chromosomes of the eurybiont species Endochironomus albipennis Meigen, 1830, the localization of the centromere regions using a C-banding technique is defined. Chromosomal polymorphism in populations from two water bodies in the Volga region has been studied, 17 sequences are described. Polytene chromosomes of Endochironomus sp. (2n=6), having larvae morphologically similar to those of Endochironomus albipennis Meigen, 1830 (2n=6) are described for the first time.

متن کاملUsing various lines of evidence to identify Chironomus species (Diptera: Chironomidae) in eastern Canadian lakes.
Chironomus Meigen (Diptera, Chironomidae) larvae are usually the largest sediment-burrowing chironomids, and as such often constitute a major part of the freshwater infaunal biomass. However, use of this genus in ecological, environmental and paleoecological studies is hampered by the fact that Chironomus larvae are difficult to identify to species because the larvae of many species are morphol...
متن کاملA systematic review of the genus Tanypus Meigen from Japan, with a description of T. nakazatoi sp. nov. (Diptera: Chironomidae: Tanypodinae)
One species of the genus Tanypus Meigen, 1803, T. punctipennis Meigen, 1818 was previously recorded from Japan. Herein Tanypus nakazatoi sp. nov. is described and figured based on all life stages. Tanypus kraatzi (Kieffer, 1913) is recorded for the first time from Japan, and all stages are redescribed and figured. Tanypus formosanus (Kieffer, 1912) sensu Niitsuma (2001) is recognized as T. kraa...
