AbstractChironomid stratigraphic analyses of sediment from Hippa Lake, Queen Charlotte Islands, B.C., revealed a fossil chironomid record unlike that reported for deeper lakes of southwestern British Columbia, but similar to an arctic Alaskan sequence. Little evidence of trophic succession or climatic change was noted.Chironomids, includingCorynoceranr.ambiguaZett., rapidly colonized the lake. Because the known adults ofCorynoceraZett. are brachypterous, the early arrival ofC. nr.ambiguaat Hippa Lake suggested either that this species survived in a Queen Charlotte glacial refugium, that chironomids can disperse very rapidly, even without active flight, or the existence of a previously undescribedCorynoceraspecies with well-developed wings.Elsewhere, fossils of theC.ambiguagroup are commonly associated with fossil oospores ofCharaValliant andNitellaAgardh. North American records are inconsistent, although similar correlations existed in some coastal lakes of British Columbia.
