Crane fly Family of flies

Crane fly is a common name referring to any member of the insect family Tipulidae, of the order Diptera, true flies in the superfamily Tipuloidea. Cylindrotominae, Limoniinae, and Pediciinae have been ranked as subfamilies of Tipulidae by most authors, though occasionally elevated to family rank. In the most recent classifications, only Pediciidae is now ranked as a separate family, due to considerations of paraphyly. In colloquial speech, crane flies are sometimes known as mosquito hawks or daddy longlegs, a term also used to describe opiliones or the family Pholcidae, both of which are arachnids. The larvae of crane flies are known commonly as leatherjackets.

Max Paul Riedel was a German entomologist who specialised in Diptera, especially Tipulidae and Tachinidae. He wrote "Die palaarktischen Arten der Dipteren-Gattung Tipula L." and many shorter scientific papers on Tipulidae.
