%0 Journal Article %T Biogeographical and ecological comments on "A new Neotropical species of the genus Parochlus Enderlein, 1912 (Chironomidae: Podonominae) and new distribution in Argentina" by Rodr¨ªguez et al. 2009 %A Donato %A Mariano %A Posadas %A Paula %J Revista de la Sociedad Entomol£¿3gica Argentina %D 2010 %I Sociedad Entomol¨®gica Argentina %X rodr¨ªguez et al. (2009) described a new species of the podonominae genus parochlus enderlein. several aspects of the abovementioned contribution concerning ecological and biogeographical aspects are discussed. the new temperature range proposed by the authors for this species is weakly supported by evidence and should be interpreted as tentative. the statement that this new record occurred in the monte biogeographic province is erroneous. the type locality of the new species belongs to the chacoan biogeographic province. %K parochlus %K neotropics %K biogeography %K ecology %K pupal exuvia. %U http://www.scielo.org.ar/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S0373-56802010000100014&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
