Smittium elongatum Lichtw. 1972

We found in the bloodworm species Chironomus zealandicus from sites 11 and 15 a Smittium species that appears to be S. elongatum, first described from Colorado, U.S.A. (Lichtwardt 1972), and subsequently from Japan (Lichtwardt et al. 1987). Some bloodworms from both sites l l and 15 also had S. simulii in their hindguts, and Stachylina grandispora (site 11) was present as well in their peritrophic membranes.
