Pleciofungivoridae constitute a moderately large group of extinct nematocerous
Diptera with venational similarities to some Bibionomorpha. Sixty-six species
in 18 genera are listed in this catalog. Kovalev (1987) reviewed the generic
composition of the family and mentioned a large amount of undetermined material
from various deposits not recorded below including the Jurassic of Mongolia
and Cretaceous of Transbaikalia. The genus Fera Hong, which was not
studied by Kovalev, is listed here as questionably included in the family,
though Kovalev (1987) included it in his generic composition. Fourteen species
of the genus Rhaetofungivora Rohdendorf were transferred by Kovalev
(1987) to the Protopleciidae based on reexamination of type material, but
not placed in any genus. They are treated in that family in this catalog
under unplaced species.
The family-group names Pleciofungivoridae and Fungivoritinae were both originally
proposed by Rohdendorf (1946). Kovalev in Kalugina & Kovalev (1985)
synonymized Fungivoritidae with Pleciofungivoridae under the First Reviser
Principle. This catalog follows Kovalev in treating Pleciofungivoridae as
the valid family-group name for the group of taxa listed herein.
