Cylindrotoma distinctissima

The Cylindrotomidae or long-bodied craneflies are a family of crane flies. More than 65 extant species in 9 genera occur worldwide.[1] There are more than 20 extinct species.[2]

Most recent classifications place the group to family level. This was not supported by phylogenetic analyses by Petersen et al. in 2010,[3] but several studies and catalogs have since treated the group as a family, and they remain an established family.[4][5][1][6][7][8]
