Abstract

Immature stages of Dasybasis (Dasybasis) pruinivitta (Kr ber) are described and illustrated. Larvae of D. (D.) pruinivitta were collected from moss in wetlands in Valle Nevado, Central Chile in association with larvae of Lepidoptera and other invertebrates. The mean altitude of the site was 2750 m. The relationship of this species with other larvae of Dasybasis Macquart is discussed.
