• A new blackfly species, Simulium (Morops) kerei sp. nov. is described based on male and pupal specimens collected from the Solomon Islands, South Pacific. This species is placed in the farciminis-group by the pupal gill consisting of 1 inflated, horn-like filament and 4 slender filaments. This species is unique in possessing the parameral hooks in the male genitalia which are absent in all the Papua New Guinean Morops species. From the known species of the farciminis-group, this species is easily distinguished by the absence of the distinct hair crest on the male fore basitarsus, and in the pupa by the plate-like terminal hooks, all terga well-sclerotized, and the normal, wall-pocket-shaped cocoon covering whole of the thorax and abdomen. This is the first record of the farciminis-group of the subgenus Morops from the Solomon Islands.
