Abstract

Abstract The third-instar larva of Suphisellus curtus (Sharp, 1882) is described and illustrated for the first time, including morphometric and chaetotaxic analyses of the cephalic capsule, head appendages, legs, last abdominal segment, and urogomphus. This is the second detailed larval description for the genus Suphisellus Crotch, 1873. Larvae of this genus can be readily separated from other known noterid larvae by the strongly developed galea, subequal in length to maxillary palpus. Suphisellus curtus differs from S. rufipes (Sharp, 1882) in the dorsal colour pattern, S. rufipes being entirely testaceous and S. curtus testaceous with transverse brown bands between body segments.

期刊介绍： Aquatic Insects is an international journal publishing original research on the systematics, biology, and ecology of aquatic and semi-aquatic insects. The subject of the research is aquatic and semi-aquatic insects, comprising taxa of four primary orders, the Ephemeroptera, Odonata, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera but also aquatic and semi-aquatic families of Hemiptera, Coleoptera, and Diptera, as well as specific representatives of Hymenoptera , Lepidoptera, Mecoptera, Megaloptera , and Neuroptera that occur in lotic and lentic habitats during part of their life cycle. Studies on other aquatic Hexapoda (i.e., Collembola) will be only accepted if space permits. Papers on other aquatic Arthropoda (e.g., Crustacea) will not be considered, except for those closely related to aquatic and semi-aquatic insects (e.g., water mites as insect parasites). The topic of the research may include a wide range of biological fields. Taxonomic revisions and descriptions of individual species will be accepted especially if additional information is included on habitat preferences, species co-existing, behavior, phenology, collecting methods, etc., that are of general interest to an international readership. Descriptions based on single specimens are discouraged. Detailed studies on morphology, physiology, behavior, and phenology of aquatic insects in all stadia of their life cycle are welcome as well as the papers with molecular and phylogenetic analyses, especially if they discuss evolutionary processes of the biological, ecological, and faunistic formation of the group.
