Stenochironomus pulchripennis
Stenochironomus pulchripennis is a species of non-biting midge in the family Chironomidae, first described by Coquillett in 1902. The genus Stenochironomus is characterized by reduced wing venation and includes species often associated with decaying wood and aquatic habitats. Like other chironomids, adults do not feed and rely on larval energy reserves.
