Paragorgopis schnusei is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Paragorgopis of the family Ulidiidae. [1] [2] [3]
Glowworm or glow-worm is the common name for various groups of insect larvae and adult larviform females that glow through bioluminescence. They include the European common glow-worm and other members of the Lampyridae, but bioluminescence also occurs in the families Elateridae, Phengodidae and Rhagophthalmidae among beetles; as well as members of the genera Arachnocampa, Keroplatus and Orfelia among keroplatid fungus gnats.
The Hepialidae are a family of insects in the lepidopteran order. Moths of this family are often referred to as swift moths or ghost moths.
The Ulidiidae or picture-winged flies are a large and diverse cosmopolitan family of flies (Diptera), and as in related families, most species are herbivorous or detritivorous. They are often known as picture-winged flies, along with members of other families in the superfamily Tephritoidea that have patterns of bands or spots on the wings. Some species share with the Tephritidae an unusual elongated posteroapical projection of the anal cell in the wing, but can be differentiated by the smoothly curving subcostal vein. Two species, Tetanops myopaeformis and Euxesta stigmatias, are agricultural pests.

Tulaya is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. It was previously named Hercynella but that name was pre-occupied by a genus of fossil molluscs.
The Ulidiinae are a subfamily of flies in the family Ulidiidae. Like the Otitinae, most species are herbivorous or saprophagous. Most species share with the Tephritidae an unusual elongated projection of the anal cell in the wing, but can be differentiated by the smoothly curving subcostal vein. Most are dull gray to shiny brown or black flies with vein R1 setulose or, in a few cases, bare.
Richardia is a genus of flies in the family Richardiidae. It was first described by French entomologist Jean-Baptiste Robineau-Desvoid in 1830. It occurs from Mexico to Central and South America.
Neogriphoneura is a genus of flies in the family Lauxaniidae. There are about 11 described species in Neogriphoneura.
Balgus is a genus of click beetle. They are one of several genera in the family which contain at least one bioluminescent species. The genus was originally placed in the family Eucnemidae, later transferred to Throscidae, but recent classifications establish them firmly within Elateridae.
