This is the first paper of a series on the taxonomy of Japanese gall midges belonging to the subfamily Lestremiinae (Diptera:Cecidomyiidae). These papers resultessentially from a two year study of this group in forests of Japan between October, 1998, and September , 2000. The general introduction provides information on the group under study, on methods and material studied, and on the natural conditions within the Japanese archipelago in previous and recent times: palaepgepgraphy, zoogeography, climate, and forest vegetation. Part one treats the Japanese species of Pseudoperomyia of the Micromyini. Nine species are treated in depth, each with sections on adult morphology, their systematic position, and their distribution and biology within Japan. Six of these species are described as new to science: Pseudoperomyia composita sp. n., P. Fagiphila sp. n., P.furcillata sp. n., P. hondoensis sp. n., P. japonica sp. n., and P. velata sp. n. The genetic diagnosis supplemented here includes the description of Pseudoperomvia females for the first time. The systematics, zoogeography and biology of Pseudoperomyia are discussed taking into consideration the 28 species known to date. A key to Pseudoperomyia males is given.
