Anthomyzidae
Short-winged form of Stiphrosoma sabulosum from Germany
Scientific classification
Kingdom:
Animalia
Phylum:
Arthropoda
Class:
Insecta
Order:
Diptera
Superfamily:
Opomyzoidea
Family:
Anthomyzidae
Genera

Anthomyzidae are small, slender, yellow to black flies with narrow and elongate wings, which may have distinct markings. Some species have greatly reduced wings. Fewer than 100 species are known, mostly from Europe. Although they occur in all major regions, they seem to be most varied in the Holarctic Region

Around 20 diverse genera have been placed in the family. Two, Teratomyza and Teratoptera are now in Teratomyzidae, and Cyamops and Stenomicra are in Stenomicridae. Melanthomyza Malloch from Chile should probably not be retained in the family. The remaining genera are very similar to one another.

Biology

Larvae have been reported from decaying dicotyledonous plants, and from fungi and , in Europe, from leaf sheaths of various grasses and of Typha and Juncus, from Lipara galls on Phragmites, It is possible that they may be either phytophagous or saprophagous, but there seem to be no reports of damage to cereals or other plants.
