Adult chironomids are short-lived and their behaviour is concerned largely with reproduction. Chironomid swarms are familiar and field and laboratory observations of reproduction are numerous. For ephemeral adults, mating requires spatial and temporal synchronization of emergence and subsequent adult location.
