Pseudochironomus Malloch 1915
Genus Pseudochironomus Malloch, 1915 A genus of ~20 described species from the Neotropical, Nearctic and Western Palaearctic regions. Eleven species are described from the Neotropical region (Paggi & Rodriguez-Garay 2015; Shimabukuro et al. 2017; Trivinho-Strixino & Shimabukuro 2018; Andersen 2023; Andersen et al. 2023). Larvae favour sandy or gravelly littoral sediments, primarily in meso- or oligotrophic lakes or in large, slow flowing rivers (Epler et al. 2013).
