Can you recommend a good guide for separating the families in Sciaroidea? I think I can mostly tell Sciaridae apart from Cecidomyiidae, but I'm not sure if I'm right all the time, and I'm possibly missing some of the other families. It seems Cecidomyiidae usually have hairy wings, long antennae that are sometimes held curved, and are frequently orange in color. Those are all generalizations, though, that probably don't really define the family. A good reference would be nice. |
