The adult male and female, and immature stages, of Paracricotopus millrockensis are described from specimens collected in North Carolina and Georgia. This is a new species of Orthocladiinae, an insect subfamily of non-biting midges. The species has been found in small streams associated with stone substrates, and the larvae feed mainly on detritus and algae.
