Ablabesmyia
Ablabesmyia is a genus of non-biting midges in the subfamily Tanypodinae of the bloodworm family Chironomidae.
Species
- A. longistyla (Fittkau, 1962)
- A. monilis (Linnaeus, 1758)
- A. phatta (Egger, 1863)
Ecology
A. longistyla, A. monilis and A. phatta are widespread and common in Europe.[1] Larvae of A. longistyla and A. monilis have been found together and seem to be restricted to the shallow oxygenated littoral zone.[2]
