Taxon discussion
Refer to Gapud (1981) for identification. In Mindoro, three species of Ochterus Latreille, 1807 are recorded so far, O. marginatus (Latreille, 1804) ssp. insularis Rieger, 1977, O. polhemusi Gapud, 1981 and O. philippinensis Kormilev, 1971 ( Kormilev 1971, Gapud 1995, Gapud 2002).
Habitat
We collected specimens in emergence traps spanned over littoral portions of small streams, on hygropetric rocks and along small rivulets. The species is generally found in banks of streams, ponds, lakes, freshwater marshlands and in association with waterfalls. It is also found in substrates that are muddy or sandy.
