Abstract

The movement of female and male midges, Anarete pritchardi Kim, in a swarm prior, during and following coupling was described in five cases. Along with two couplings described in an earlier paper, a possible cue of interaction leading to coupling was identified, namely a sharp turn of the female, a sharp turn of the male, then followed by the convergence of flight paths. The male then eased up to the female to make contact.
