  • The Australian Species of Dolichopeza CURTIS (Diptera: Tipulidae)

Beitr. 25/2 833-911 31.12.1993 The Australian species of Dolichopeza CURTIS (Diptera: Tipulidae) G. THEISCHINGER Abstract: The Australian species of the genus Dolichopeza CURTIS are reviewed. For the time being they all are assigned to Dolichopeza s. str. Lectotypes are designated for seven species. One taxon previously regarded as a subspecies is given füll specific rank, and one species is synonymized. In total 28 previously described species are recognized. The males of two of those species previously known only from the female, and the females of th- ree of those species previously known only from the male, are introduced, and 18 species are described as new. A key is presented to species groups as recognized in this paper (males only). Key-words: Dolichopeza, revision; Australian species. Introduction The first description of an Australian species of Dolichopeza CURTIS was presented by MACQUART (1846) under Apeilesis cinerea. To this SKUSE (1890) added seven more species, and ALEXANDER (1920, 1924, 1928a, 1928b, 1930, 1934, 1937, 1944) contributed another 19 taxa of the species group. However, only SKUSE (1890) provided illustrations, for four of his species. DOBROTWORSKY (1974) revised the Australian members of Do- lichopeza. He (DOBROTWORSKY 1974) synonymized one of ALEXANDER'S species, attributed full specific rank to one of ALEXANDER'S subspecies, re- described all previously known species which he recognized, and described three more species.

Water Use Classifications and Water Quality Standards ( 1) Purpose. The establishment of water quality standards. (2) W ate r Quality Enhancement: (a) The purposes and intent of the State in establishing Water Quality Standards are to provide enhancement of water quality and prevention of pollution; to protect the public health or welfare in accordance with the public interest for drinking water supplies, conservation of fish, wildlife and other beneficial aquatic life, and agricultural, industrial, recreational, and other reasonable and necessary uses and to maintain and improve the biological integrity of the waters of the State. ( b) The following paragraphs describe the three tiers of the State's waters. (i) Tier 1 - Existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing uses shall be maintained and protected. (ii) Tier 2 - Where the quality of the waters exceed levels necessary to support propagation of fish, shellfish, and wildlife and recreation in and on the water, that quality shall be maintained and protected unless the division finds, after full satisfaction of the intergovernmental coordination and public participation provisions of the division's continuing planning process, that allowing lower water quality is necessary to accommodate important economic or social development in the area in which the waters are located.
