Abstract

A new species of Limoniinae (Diptera: Limoniidae), Dicranomyia (Glochina) collserolae n. sp., is described. This is the seventh species of this subgenus recorded from the Iberian Peninsula and was discovered in the Serra de Collserola Natural Park, a protected area near the city of Barcelona (Catalonia). Dicranomyia (G.) collserolae n. sp. is characterized by the following features: general coloration grey to dark grey, silvery pruinose; thorax with four, brownish-grey longitudinal stripes on prescutum; wings subhyaline to pale brownish; male with yellowish-brown hypopygium with two rostral bristles on mid-dorsal part of rostrum of inner gonostylus. A key is provided for separating the seven species of Dicranomyia (Glochina) now known to be present in the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands.
