Forcipomyiinae sp. [translucidus]

Page
Only one species was identified with molecular species delimitation – four individuals sequenced. Similar to Forcipomiinae sp. [roseus] but red color limited to the thorax and caudal region, rest of the body transparent white. Head color is variable and probably depends on molting time (clearer after molting).
 
Habitat: Aquatic
 
Synonyms in the BWG database: It could have been mixed among Diptera sp. M and Chironomidae sp. E in previous censuses.
