Abstract

Recent investigations of aquatic Diptera in Khao Yai National Park, Thailand, have yielded numerous specimens of net-winged midges (Blephariceridae), including a new species of Blepharicera Macquart. This species and an undetermined species of Apistomyia Bigot are reported from several streams and waterfalls in the park. This paper provides a summary of all known collection records and description of larvae, pupae, and adults of Blepharicera acanthonota sp. n., and details about its habitat and phenology.
