Abstract

Chromosomal polymorphism is investigated in samples of Chironomus plumosus L., (1758) (Diptera, Chironomidae) from a pond on the Chemoshur creek in Udmurtia for the first time. The pool of polytene chromosome banding sequences of this species includes 12 banding sequences forming 17 zygotic combinations. The pluF2 sequence is found with a high frequency of 0.17. The cytogenetic distance between the known populations is determined.
