A new species of the simulium (Simulium) crocinum species-group (diptera: Simuliidae) from Vietnam
A new black fly species, Simulium yukawai, is described on the basis of one female and its pupal exuviae from Vietnam. This new species is placed in the S. crocinum species-group of Simulium (Simulium) (Diptera: Simuliidae). It is characterized in the female by the paraproct covered with 48–50 disti...
