All information given in the paper - not least the male antenna with 11 flagellomeres, and the hypopygium - suggests beyond any reasonable doubt that the species does not belong to Polypedilum but to 'Einfeldia sensu lato'. Within the latter old grouping, which includes members of several current genus-level taxa (e.g. Benthalia, Chironomus (Lobochironomus), Einfeldia s. str.), the proposed species name is quite likely to end up as nothing but a junior synonym.

Moubayed, J., Langton, P. (2022) Polypedilum (Uresipedilum) alixae sp.n., a new species inhabiting acid peat bogs in north eastern France (Diptera, Chironomidae, Chironominae). Evraziat. Entomol. Zh. (= Euroas. Entomol. J.) 21(1): 68-72. [in English, with Russian abstract] [CAUTION! All information given in the paper - not least the male antenna with 11 flagellomeres, and the hypopygium - suggests beyond any reasonable doubt that the species does not belong to Polypedilum but to 'Einfeldia sensu lato'. Within the latter old grouping, which includes members of several current genus-level taxa (e.g. Benthalia, Chironomus (Lobochironomus), Einfeldia s. str.), the proposed species name is quite likely to end up as nothing but a junior synonym. The same applies to three names proposed for similar species in Moubayed-Breil (2020) and Moubayed-Breil & Langton (2020), respectively.]
