albipunctata (Williston) (L.W. Quate pers. comm.).
Psychoda albipunctata Williston, 1893: 113 View in CoL .
Clogmia albipunctata: Peck et al. 1998: 228 [introduced species]; Causton et al. 2006: 134 [introduced species].
Distribution. Introduced. Cosmopolitan; Galápagos: Santa Cruz.
Material examined. Galápagos: Santa Cruz: CDRS , brackish water tank, seep, 19.i.1989, B.J. Sinclair (1 ♀, CNC); ECCD , Academy Bay , 10.v.–8.vi.1985, Malaise trap, arid zone, S. & J. Peck (2 ♀, CNC) .
Remarks. Specimens were collected from the wet walls of a water tank at the Charles Darwin Research Station (CDRS). This species has been reported breeding in sinks, drains, tree holes and shallow pools in human settlements ( Quate 1954), and consequently it has likely been introduced with humans to the islands.
