Special note

I have been informed that the Lucid key to Chironomidae that I produced nearly a decade ago has been ported to an improved platform:
https://keys.lucidcentral.org/keys/v3/Chironomidae/index.html

This avoids issues with Java Applets, and now uses the newest JavaScript based Lucid Player. This should be cross-platform and work on Firefox on Macs and PC (at least all that I've tested it on).

It's linked from http://apes.skullisland.info/node/3 where most of my reprints are located.

This topic is for announcements of recent publications providing keys to the identification of chironomid taxa.

Please NOTE that some keys are offered in works containing new taxon proposals, e.g. in genus revisions. Citations of such titles are not necessarily repeated in the present board of the Forum, but are listed in the "Taxa" category, "Recently published" board.
