I'm seeing these fairly regularly lately. Is it possible to ID to genus from the photo? ... or even subfamily for that matter.... Edited by victorengel on 24-03-2021 16:01 |

Thanks. The antennae didn't seem to match anything I was finding on bugguide. I suppose these are more easily ID'd from the galls.

There are 12 cylindrical flagellomeres. The antennae are unusual. Asphondyliini have longer cylinders and other Cecidomyiidi have necks between them. |
