Lygistorrhininae Explained
Lygistorrhininae, commonly called long-beaked fungus gnats is a subfamily of flies in the Diptera family Keroplatidae. The groups was long treated as a separate family, but molecular phylogenetic analysis has shown it to belong to Keroplatidae.[1] There are about 7 genera and at least 30 described species in Lygistorrhininae.[2]
