Genus Tanypus Meigen, 1803 View in CoL
A genus of>30 named species that occur in all zoogeographical regions except Antarctica and Oceania. Two subgenera are recognized, namely Tanypus s. str. and Apelopia Roback, 1971 (see Ashe & O’Connor 2009). The larvae live in sediments in standing and slowly flowing waters, especially in temperate to warm regions, where they can tolerate high salinity ( Cranston & Epler 2013).
