New Data on Morphology and Ecology of Limoniid Fly Larvae of the Genus Metalimnobia (Diptera, Limoniidae) Developed in Fungal Substrates

摘要

New data on larval biology are given for four species, Metalimnobia bifasciata (Schr.), M. dualis Sav., M. lanceolata Sav., and M. quadrimaculata (L.). The morphology of the larvae of M. dualis Sav. and the larvae and pupae of M. lanceolata Sav. is examined for the first time. The morphological characteristics of the larvae and pupae of M. bifasciata (Schr.) and M. quadrimaculata (L.) are specified. Keys to species, based on the larval and pupal characters, are compiled.
