Clunio marinus is a species of non-biting midge in the bloodworm family (Chironomidae). It is found in the intertidal zone of the European Atlantic coast from Spain to Iceland. [1] The species is a long-standing model system in chronobiology, particularly for circalunar clocks and the evolution of biological clocks. [2] [3] [4] Its genome has been sequenced. [5]
