41. Simulium (Nevermannia) kurtaki Takaoka & Davies, 1995 View in CoL

Simulium (Nevermannia) kurtaki Takaoka & Davies, 1995: 94 View in CoL –97 (Female, pupa and larva).

This species was described from females, pupae and larvae collected from Mt. Tahan (Takaoka and Davies, 1995). The male remains unknown. It is distinguished from S. (N.) caudisclerum View in CoL in the pupa by the cocoon without an anterodorsal projection and the short common basal stalk, and in the larva by the absence of an accessory sclerite.

Beside the type locality, one pupa was found in a stream (1,813 m in elevation) in Brinchang, Cameron Highlands, where S. (N.) pairoti and S. (N.) caudisclerum breed.
