They are Limoniidae if you split the families. I don't recognize the genus. |

I don't recognize the genus. This is the order of priority of family group names: Tipulidae dates from 1802 Limoniidae dates from 1840 Limnophilidae dates from 1854 If all the crane flies are in one family that family is called Tipulidae with subfamilies Tipulinae and Limoniinae, and Limoniinae has a tribe Limnophilini. This is the traditional classification by Alexander, except he used the name Hexatomini for the tribe. Hexatomini has priority from 1869 and should not be used for a group that also includes Limnophila. If the families are split there is a family Limoniidae with a subfamily Limnophilinae. I call this the European classification. The problem with splitting the families is the definition of Limoniidae is "everything which is not in one of the other subfamilies". That is an easy enough rule to apply, but goes against modern custom which expects taxonomic names to apply to monophyletic groups. |

Venational details are poorly visible yet I'd suggest Idiocera (s.str.)
While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |
