A review of Australian Scenopinidae (Diptera)

Abstract

A preliminary attempt is made to review the Australian Scenopinidae. The Australian fauna consists of five genera, having about 12 species (two new genera, Scenopinula and Riekiella, are described and the genus Pseudomphrale, with two new species is recorded here for the first time from Australia). Morphology, bionomics, and geographical distribution are also discussed.
