Thecodiplosis brachynteroides
Thecodiplosis brachynteroides is a species of gall midge in the family Cecidomyiidae, described by Osten Sacken in 1862. Gall midges in this family are small, delicate flies whose larvae induce gall formation on host plants. The genus Thecodiplosis is associated with conifer hosts, particularly pines.
