The larva of the species Glyptotendipes (Caulochironomus) nagorskayae is described. In Moller Pillot et al. (2000) the species is named Glyptotendipes (Caulochironomus) spec. Belarus.
The feeding on freshwater invertebrates was studied. The results show that there is a great impact on the number of invertebrates in waterbodies where Gammaridae occur. The impact is greatest when collected material is transported in buckets.
The male imago, pupal exuviae and larva are described. The larvae of five species, four belonging to the Chironomus luridus agg. and one belonging to the subgenus Lobochironomus, can be identified using a provisional key.
