Simulium rufibasis Brunetti, 1911 View in CoL

Simulium rufibasis is distinguished from other species in the Thai tuberosum group by having pupae with conical cephalic microtubercles ( Fig. 4 View FIGURE 4 B) and gill filaments moderately stalked and decreasing slightly in thickness from dorsal to ventral ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7 C), females with sternite VII bearing a pair of medium-long clustered hairs, and males with the median sclerite about as long as wide and nearly parallel sided ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 B). Further study is needed to determine if S. rufibasis in Thailand is conspecific with the type of S. rufibasis from West Bengal, India.
