New aquatic insects from the Miocene of Australia with notes on the ecology and ontogeny of a new species of Chaoborus (Diptera, Chaoboridae)

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology
Abstract We describe a diverse aquatic insect assemblage from McGraths Flat, a Miocene Lagerstätte in central New South Wales, Australia that includes representatives of Sialidae, Limoniidae, Chironomidae and Chaoboridae. The aquatic insect fossils from this deposit consist predominantly of larvae.

The male genital tract of Chaoboridae (Diptera: Culicomorpha)

The Canadian Entomologist, 2008
AbstractThe male genital tract of Chaoboridae, represented by Eucorethra underwoodi Underwood, Mochlonyx velutinus (Ruthe), and Chaoborus trivittatus (Loew), is described for the first time. All genera have paired accessory glands that are attached anteriorly to the vasa deferentia or the base of the testes, a feature that is proposed as a synapomorphy

The Australian Chaoboridae (Diptera)

Australian Journal of Zoology Supplementary Series, 1986
Australia has a small but very interesting fauna of Chaoboridae, with some nine species in four genera. Chaoborus has five species, four of them new; three, perhaps four, are most closely related to species in Asia and Africa, but one (C. vagus, sp. nov.) seems related to the more 'primitive' subgenera of the Holarctic Region. The endemic Prornochlonyx

OBSERVATIONS ON THE DISTRIBUTION, EMERGENCE AND BEHAVIOUR OF CENTRAL AFRICAN CHAOBORIDAE

Journal of the Limnological Society of Southern Africa, 1988
SUMMARY The distribution of four species of Chaoboras over selected parts of Zimbabwe is given. The effect of temperature on the duration of the larval life cycle is discussed in relation to the generation time and the lunar periodicity of the adult emergence period. There were apparently two generations of larvae present in the habitat at any one time,

Observations on adults and eggs of chaoborus flavicans (Diptera: Chaoboridae)

Hydrobiologia, 1980
Adults of Chaoborus flavicans (Meigen) (Diptera: Chaoboridae) were observed in the laboratory. Newly emerged females contained well-developed oocytes. Copulation was successfully induced using a method originally developed for mosquitoes. Copulation also took place naturally in a cage. Females could be induced to oviposit by decapitating them.

A new southern limit along the Pacific Rim of North America for Mochlonyx cinctipes (Diptera: Chaoboridae), Eucorethra underwoodi (Diptera: Chaoboridae) and Aedes fitchii (Diptera: Culicidae)

The Pan-Pacific Entomologist, 2010
Abstract A survey of the upper Eel River watershed in the high North Coast Ranges of California resulted in the identification of four species of Chaoboridae and 12 species of Culicidae. The boreal species Mochlonyx cinctipes (Coquillett), Eucorethra underwoodi Underwood and Aedes fitchii (Felt and Young) were collected south of previously known ...
