The Hangang River* is necessary to manage the water environment of severe pollution due to the high density of residential areas, parks, and agriculture and the large population concentrated there. Benthic macroinvertebrates, such as chironomids larvae, are bioindicator species that reflect environmental changes and are crucial for water quality monitoring. In this study, we investigated morphological characteristics and molecular analysis of the chironomids larvae inhabiting the Hangang River area for water environment surveys. For this research, 20 rivers, lakes, and urban area in the Hangang River basin were selected. Chironomids larvae were collected from July to September 2022, and their appearance and characteristics were identified through morphological identification. In addition, phylogenetic analysis was performed based on the mtCOI gene sequences of the collected chironomids larvae, and identification at the genus level was confirmed. As a result, 32 species and 18 genera of 3 subfamilies of Chironomidae larvae were identified, and Stictochironomus sp. dominated most sites (6 sites). The morphological characteristics of the identified chironomids larvae, such as the mentum, ventromental plate, and antenna, were organized into table and pictorial keys, and a Bayesian inference molecular phylogeny was presented. These results provide basic morphological information for genus-level identification and can be used as fundamental information for water quality management. *The public nomenclature following by NGII 2015

최근 보령 지역의 후기 트라이아스기 아미산층에서 다량의 화석 강도래 유충이 발견되었다. 이들의 유충은 그 형태적 특징에 의해 Platyperlidae과, Baleyopterygidae과, Siberioperlidae과 등으로 분류되었다. 이 중 양적으로 가장 많 이 발견되는 종류는 Baleyopterygidae과의 화석 강도래이다. 이러한 사실은 강도래가 러시아, 몽골 및 중국을 비롯한 동 북아시아 지역까지 이미 중생대부터 넓게 분포했음을 의미한다. 현생 강도래는 대부분 유수성이며 맑은 물에 서식하기 때문에 화석 강도래가 발견되는 보령 지역도 유사한 환경이었을 것으로 추정된다. 또한 강도래와 함께 발견되는 화석들 로 미루어 볼 때 당시의 강도래는 하루살이나 패갑류 등을 먹고 살았던 것으로 추정된다.

Immature stages of Mantura rustica (Linnaeus) are described in detail for the first time in Korea. A key to identifying larvae of Korean Mantura is provided, with their illustrations and larval tubercle pattern.

베트남산 Podontia affinis, P. dalmani, P. lutea의 3종 유충에 대한 상세한 기재를 하였으며, P. dalmani를 제외한 Podontia affinis 및 P. lutea는 최초로 기재된다. 또한 이 종들의 분류학적 특징에 대해서도 언급한다.
