Eudicrana is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are about 13 described species in Eudicrana. [1] [2] [3] [4]
These 13 species belong to the genus Eudicrana:
The Nematocera are a suborder of elongated flies with thin, segmented antennae and mostly aquatic larvae. This group is paraphyletic and contains all flies except for species from suborder Brachycera, which includes more commonly known species such as the housefly or the common fruit fly. The equivalent clade to Nematocera is the whole Diptera, with Brachycera as a subclade. Families in Nematocera include mosquitoes, crane flies, gnats, black flies, and multiple families commonly known as midges. The Nematocera typically have fairly long, fine, finely-jointed antennae. In many species, such as most mosquitoes, the female antennae are more or less threadlike, but the males have spectacularly plumose antennae.
Mycetophilidae is a family of small flies, forming the bulk of those species known as fungus gnats. About 3000 described species are placed in 150 genera, but the true number of species is undoubtedly much higher. They are generally found in the damp habitats favoured by their host fungi and sometimes form dense swarms.
Bolitophila is the sole living genus in the Bolitophilidae, a family of Diptera in the superfamily Sciaroidea, with around 40 Palaearctic and about 20 Nearctic species, and three species from the Oriental region (Taiwan). They are small (6–9 mm).
Allocotocera is a genus of flies in the family of Mycetophilidae. Two of the species are found in Europe.
Zygomyia is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are at least 80 described species in Zygomyia.
Symmerus is a genus of fungus gnats and gall midges in the family Ditomyiidae. There are about five described species in Symmerus.
Exechia is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are more than 180 described species in Exechia.
Eudicrana obumbrata is a species of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae.
Dixella is a genus of meniscus midges in the family Dixidae. There are more than 70 described species in Dixella.
Aglaomyia is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are at least two described species in Aglaomyia.
Rondaniella is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are about nine described species in Rondaniella.
Ectrepesthoneura is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are more than 20 described species in Ectrepesthoneura.
Gnoriste is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are about 13 described species in Gnoriste.
Mycetophila elegans is a species of 'fungus gnats' in the family Mycetophilidae.
Rhipidita is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Ditomyiidae.
Nervijuncta is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Ditomyiidae.
Australosymmerus is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Ditomyiidae.
Exechiopsis is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae.
Allodiopsis is a genus of fungus gnats belonging to the family Mycetophilidae.
Anomalomyia is a genus of fly belonging to the family Mycetophilidae.
