Abstract

A revision of the genus Smittia Holmgren (Diptera Chironomidae
subfamily Orthocladiinae tribe Metriocnemini) is carried out. Three new species,
S. abruzzae, S. alpilonga and S. stercoraria are here described, S. alpicola Goetghebuer,
1941 is redescribed from type materia!, S. rostrata Goetghebuer in
Schmolzer, 1962, previously considered a nomen dubium, is redescribed from type
materi al.
Species descriptions are based on adult males morphology, at present no diagnostic
character is available to separate adult females, pupae and larvae. A key to
identify the known palearctic species is given.
