Abstract

FUENTES, María Cecilia  and  MAUAD, Melina. Pseudosmittia adunca & P. joaquimvenancioi (Diptera: Chironomidae), first records from Argentina. Rev. Soc. Entomol. Argent. [online]. 2015, vol.74, n.1-2, pp.89-91. ISSN 0373-5680.

Based on specimens of the genus Pseudosmittia recorded from two localities of the province of Buenos Aires in Argentina, the geographic distribution of P. adunca and P. joaquimvenancioi is extended. In addition, the new material of P. adunca allows us to expand its diagnosis.
