Unplaced to FAMILY

 

Many of the taxa listed here as unplaced to family of Diptera were described by Bode (1953) based on fossils of what appeared to be dipterous larvae. Some of these may be nematocerous Diptera, others may ultimately prove not to be Diptera or even of animal origin. All taxa listed here are done so provisionally until the type material can be reexamined to verify their placement.
