Abstract

Annual production and life cycle of five dominant species of Chironomidae (Chironomus plumosus

Cryptochironomus sp.

Tokunagayusurika akamusi

Procladius sp.

Clinotanypus sp.) were studied with samples collected monthly from April

1996 to March

1997 in Houhu Lake at four stations. Based on instar-frequency data

C. plumosus was univoltine

while the other four were bivoltine. Production rates in grams wet weight m−2a−1 calculated by the size-frequency method wereC. plumosus

2.170;Cryptochironomus sp.

0.602;T. akamusi

3.160;Procladius sp.

0.964;Clinotanypus sp.

0.390. Their P/B ratios were 3.9

4.9

4.4

5.3 and 6.6

respectively.
