AbstractAs part of a preimpoundment baseline study in the James Bay Hydroelectric Project in Northwestern Québec, systematic collections of aquatic insects were made in 1974 and 1975 in lakes and streams of the Rivière du Castor drainage. The aquatic Empididae are reported on here: they comprise 12 species, one of which is new (Hemerodromia fibrina n. sp.). Except for the boreal Metachela albipes, the fauna is remarkably temperate in character and composition. Emergence patterns are similar, though foreshortened, to those observed in southern Québec, and there are no bivoltine species. Most species are lotic and many thrive in fast waters (Neoplasm scapularis, Roederiodes recurvatus), but there is nevertheless a distinct lacustrine fauna (H. fibrina and perhaps also Chelifera rastrifera). The bog stations harbored only the widespread Chelifera palloris.

Abstract We report first record of the occurrence of the aquatic empidid genus Trichoclinocera Collin in Missouri based upon aquatic macroinvertebrate samples collected during March 2016 from two riffles in East Fork of the Black River in Reynolds County in the Ozark Highlands. Substrate characteristics and notes on habitat from where larval specimens of Trichoclinocera were collected are also provided.
