Lonchoptera is a genus of spear-winged flies (Lonchopteridae). Their common name refers to their subacute (pointed) wings, which have a distinct and sexually dimorphic venation.
Description
Species in Lonchoptera are tiny to small, at 2–5 mm (0.079–0.197 in), slender, and yellow to brownish-black bristly.
The larvae are dorsally flattened, with two pairs of head bristles, and feed on rotting vegetable matter.,[2] including in one case brussels sprouts.[3]
This genus can be distinguished from other spear-winged flies by several traits:[4]
