Comments. ASHE & O’CONNOR (2012) listed Orthocladius franzi under nomina dubia in Orthocladiinae . The specimen examined here is unequivocally assigned to C. (P.) rufiventris , O. franzi becomes its junior synonym. Paratrichocladius Santos Abreu, 1918 is now included as a subgenus in Cricotopus van der Wulp, 1874 ( CRANSTON & KROSCH 2015).
