In: Kahanpää J, Salmela J (Eds) Checklist of the Diptera of Finland. ZooKeys 441: 63–90. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.441.7461 Abstract A checklist of the family Chironomidae (Diptera) recorded from Finland is presented. Keywords Finland, Chironomidae, species list, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction There are supposedly at least 15 000 species of chironomid midges in the world (Armitage et al. 1995, but see Pape et al. 2011) making it the largest family among the aquatic insects. The European chironomid fauna consists of 1262 species (Sæther and Spies 2013). In Finland, 780 species can be found, of which 37 are still undescribed (Paasivirta 2012). The species checklist written by B. Lindeberg on 23.10.1979 (Hackman 1980) included 409 chironomid species. Twenty of those species have been removed from the checklist due to various reasons. The total number of species increased in the 1980s to 570, mainly due to the identification work by me and J. Tuiskunen (Bergman and Jansson 1983, Tuiskunen and Lindeberg 1986).

  • Ceh Code List for Recording the Macroinvertebrates in Fresh Water in the British Isles
    01 OCTOBER 2011 CEH CODE LIST FOR RECORDING THE MACROINVERTEBRATES IN FRESH WATER IN THE BRITISH ISLES CYNTHIA DAVIES AND FRANÇOIS EDWARDS CEH Code List For Recording The Macroinvertebrates In Fresh Water In The British Isles October 2011 Report compiled by Cynthia Davies and François Edwards Centre for Ecology & Hydrology Maclean Building Benson Lane Crowmarsh Gifford, Wallingford Oxfordshire, OX10 8BB United Kingdom Purpose The purpose of this Coded List is to provide a standard set of names and identifying codes for freshwater macroinvertebrates in the British Isles. These codes are used in the CEH databases and by the water industry and academic and commercial organisations. It is intended that, by making the list as widely available as possible, the ease of data exchange throughout the aquatic science community can be improved. The list includes full listings of the aquatic invertebrates living in, or closely associated with, freshwaters in the British Isles. The list includes taxa that have historically been found in Britain but which have become extinct in recent times. Also included are names and codes for ‘artificial’ taxa (aggregates of taxa which are difficult to split) and for composite families used in calculation of certain water quality indices such as BMWP and AWIC scores. Current status The list has evolved from the checklist* produced originally by Peter Maitland (then of the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology) (Maitland, 1977) and subsequently revised by Mike Furse (Centre for Ecology & Hydrology), Ian McDonald (Thames Water Authority) and Bob Abel (Department of the Environment). That list was subject to regular revisions with financial support from the Environment Agency.

FLIES of the family CHIRONOMIDA.E may be distinguished from other Nematocerous families of Diptera by the following combination of charac­ ters : Ocelli absent ; antennae hairy (especially in d') ; six to eight veins reaching wing-margin; one or both anal veins not reaching margin; vein M simple; cross-veins R-M and M-CU (latter when present) near middle of wing. The reduced mouthparts and the fact that the costa is not con­ tinued around the entire wing provide simple distinctions from CuLICIDAE, to which family some groups bear a superficial resemblance. The closely­ related CERA.TOPOGONIDA.E (" biting midges ") were formerly included in the CHIRONOMIDA.E (" non-biting midges"), and differ most obviously by the forked vein M ; head rounded behind instead of flattened ; postnotum without a distinct median longitudinal furrow or keel, which is present in most CHIRONOMIDA.E .
